The evolution of flavors brings together sweet almond and golden hay with cedar and florals, further enriched by charred cedar and orange taffy. This creates a harmonious blend of flavors that captivate the senses.
The finale offers a balanced blend of sweet, woody, and nutty elements, with the peppery notes receding. Highlights include black pepper, oaky roasted nuts, apricot, and cedar, culminating in a deeply satisfying experience.
Pairing Notes: Pair with almond biscotti, apricot tart, cedar-aged cheddar cheese, white pepper-crusted goat cheese, a mix of roasted nuts (almonds, hazelnuts, pecans), dark chocolate with orange peel, chamomile tea, spiced peach compote, creamy vanilla bean ice cream, and oak-aged Chardonnay for an enhanced experience.
