Nose
Creamy and sweet with a light peat smoke. Citrus peel and lemon zest jump out first, followed by gentle seaside brine. There's also a faint note of vanilla and soft oak.
Palate
Quite smoky right from the first sip — more peat than the nose suggested. Charcoal and a touch of saltwater linger alongside chewy malt. The sweetness continues here, but it's not overly sugary: more like honey-dipped peat.
Finish
Medium to long, with smoky embers and a slight tobacco edge. The citrus note returns briefly toward the end, helping to keep the finish sharp and fresh instead of heavy.
