Description
Inspired by the sensory experience of entering a French pastry shop, The Nectar 16 Year Old was created by Dr Bill Lumsen. For this dessert-like expression, he selected 14-year-old bourbon casks to bring depth and creaminess, and then treated the liquid to a finish in a combination of sweet white wine casks: Sauternes, Monbazillac, Moscatel and Tokaji. Bottled at 46% abv.
Expect decadent notes of baking brioche, stewed apricots, vanilla pudding, toasted almond and hints of chocolate truffles on the nose. The palate shines with swirls of honeycomb, orange syrup, brioche, spice and lemon zest before a long and lingering finish of citrus and more honeycomb.
