Tasting notes

NOSE

Powerful aromas of sweet pears and citrus fruits are balanced with the full fragrance of autumn flowers. Elegant aromas of sweet vanilla and dry oak are enhanced with subtle notes of sherry and smoke.

PALATE

Rich, full, deep fruity flavours with a subtle smokiness. The first taste brings the subtleties of the nose to life. Sumptuous sweet orange and marmalade flavours infused with fresh pears burst across the tongue, followed by a rich medley of spices and a nuttiness of hazelnuts that have a mouth-filling intensity.

FINISH

Dry and slightly spicy

‘This design reflects my love of nature and the spirit of renewal that comes with the Lunar New Year. Through bold colours, botanicals and traditional symbols, I aimed to capture a feeling of optimism. I hope this special edition of Royal Salute brings moments of joy, prosperity and connection.’ Emily Carter.
