Belgian Owl Fifty Edition 50% ABV

Tasting Notes – Belgian Owl Fifty Edition

• Appearance: Deep amber with warm mahogany highlights and a viscous, lingering leg.
• Nose: Generous aromas of vanilla custard, caramelised toffee and toasted almonds, layered with ripe figs, dark raisins and a soft sherry sweetness.
• Palate: Full and rounded texture; rich caramel and brown sugar lead, followed by stewed plum, dried fig and a hint of orange peel. Subtle oak spice and nutty undertones support the sweetness.
• Finish: Warm, long and persistent — lingering dried fruit and gentle oak tannins with a final echo of molasses and toasted almond.
• Overall: A decadent, well‑balanced expression that marries bourbon‑matured brightness with the opulent, dessert‑style character of Pedro Ximénez finish.

• Blue cheese or aged Gouda — contrasts the PX sweetness with savory depth.
