AI Sensory Summary

"Reviewers frequently describe the aroma of Doorly's XO as featuring dried fruits such as raisins and figs alongside tropical notes of banana and coconut, complemented by vanilla, citrus, and oak. On the palate, many identify flavors of caramel, toffee, baking spices, and toasted nuts, generally noting a combination of sweet fruit and woody elements. However, opinions on sweetness and texture diverge, with several describing the profile as smooth and sweet or semisweet, while another criticizes it as rough, lacking sweetness, and overly dry. Perceptions of the finish also vary between sweet with lingering fruit notes, and dry, short, or slightly bitter with oak and treacle."
