Hontambere XO Batch UBC01 53.2% (2023 bottling)

Nose: Black tea, nectarines, peach, cocoa covered almonds, miel de caña.

Palate: Red velvet birthday cake. cherry coulis, peach / nectarine, almond roca, envelope / packing tape, a bit thin on the palate for tiny sips but comes to life with a mouthful

Rating: 5 (Ryan) 7 (Shane) / 10 – a notable step up from the 2020 I tried. A level of grace and elegance. Props to Sylvain on evolving this blend.
