Product details
This creation celebrates the remarkable collaboration between two brothers whose vision transformed an entire industry during the latter half of the 20th century. Inspired by the contrasting yet complementary temperaments of Charles (The Accelerator) and Sandy (The Brake) Gordon, it blends two distinctly different parcels into a single, harmonious expression. The result is a layered and unconventional composition, combining power and precision with subtle restraint, reflecting decades of experience, intuition, and a fearless approach to balance. Every aspect showcases a dynamic interplay between contrasting elements, offering a rare example of complexity held in perfect equilibrium.
The experience opens with rich, mature aromas of autumnal forest floor, illuminated by bright sunlight through the branches, followed by dark berries, hints of leather, and delicate roasted tea notes. On the palate, it unfolds with unexpected sweetness—maple, pecan pie, and chocolate—before revealing deep black fruits and warming spiced undertones reminiscent of allspice and molasses. A silky, linseed-like texture adds weight and continuity, carrying the flavors through a long, evolving finish of ripe fruits and mellowed spices that evoke minty coolness. Every element works together in improbable harmony, delivering energy, richness, and a uniquely balanced character that lingers impressively.
