Visual aspect: coppery amber gleaming hue. Nose: classy, complex. Scents of spices, menthol, candied cinnamon. Palate: soft, round, fat, nearly sweet, honeyed. Remarkable persistency. Very delicate spices. Peppery on the sides of the tongue. Aromas of corked-bottle cider in the bottom of the glass. Gourmet pairing: Peking duck with crushed coriander deglazed with this XO. Comments: a very interesting product.
