Product details
A precise homage to the brand’s legacy, Folio 6 forms the sixth chapter in the Archival Series, inspired by a clever 1980s advertising campaign featuring a regal chairman dancing across pen and brush motifs. Released in 2020 as a strictly limited gesture of fewer than 3,000 bottles, it arrives in a distinctive book-style tin accompanied by a richly illustrated booklet revisiting that iconic campaign. Matured in hand-selected sherry-seasoned oak casks, the presentation boasts an autumnal auburn hue, reflecting its depth and refinement. Every aspect—from the packaging to the subtle layering—celebrates heritage, artistic wit, and the careful use of seasoned oak to shape its expressive nature.
The experience begins with vivid aromas of orange and ginger, unfolding into poached pear, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, and a gentle lift of fresh oak with a trace of chocolate. On the palate, rich notes of orange and sultana are complemented by a touch of ginger, easing into soft milk chocolate. The finish carries a warming ginger glow, gracefully extending with a long, satisfying presence.
