Nose
Opens fresh, salty, and clean, developing to sweet malt dried over peat, with notes of smoke, citrus, and a faint bacon aroma.
Palate
Oily texture with ashes, sweet tar, beaches, and smoking chimneys. Intense peat, pepper, and salty, chalky maritime notes with an underlying fruity sweetness.
Finish
Long and lingering, replicating the palate with salty, tangy liquorice, smoke, bonfire ashes, and a phenolic quality.
