NOSE: Dinner in a dark, elegant panelled dining room, where a fire in the hearth illuminates the darkness, creating intriguing shadows and silhouettes. The dessert course is delivered to the table with a flourish as a waiter offers strong Aruba espressos or fresh mint tea to the diners. A chocolate torte, dusted with cocoa releases its aroma into the warm air to fuse with the steaming coffee and mint as layer after layer, Glenmorangie Signet reveals even more depth. Next, a dark, treacly plum pudding appears on the table, rich with sherry, candied orange peel and warming spices of ginger and cinnamon, bathed in a golden butterscotch sauce. Lastly, a dish of chocolate dipped dried fruits, dates and crisp cherries are placed on the snowy cloth

TASTE: The contrast of melting rich sweetness with an explosive crackle of sizzling spices and bitter mocha is dark and delicious; a velvet explosion. The voluptuousness of baked apricots followed by the tang of orange peel. Add water and your senses are enveloped with cinnamon coupled with coffee beans, walnut oil and the maltiness of digestive biscuits. Poured over ice, the bitter-sweet flavour is enriched with nuts, raisins and warm ginger

FINISH: A fresh spring like breeziness of mint and a bright lemony green quality
