The first nosings find notes of quinine, burnt match and furniture polish; additional time brings out deeper scents of onion, brine, olives and damp earth. The palate entry is sooty, sweet and close to creamy; at midpalate the taste profile turns zesty and peppery, oaky sweet, charcoal-like and savory. Finishes bittersweet and caramel-like.
