Nose
Rich, deep. Initially, refined peat aromas dominate the entire aromatic spectrum. With aeration, it becomes saline, smoky (rubber), and medicinal (aspirin, arnica). White flowers (lilac, lily of the valley) add a touch that is both heady and refreshing.
Palate
Generous, invigorating. The peat takes on herbaceous (freshly cut hay), rooty (gentian), and spicy (ginger) tones. Mid-palate, flavors of vanilla (pod) and coconut milk saturate the taste buds followed by notes of freshly squeezed lemons.
Finish
Long, rich. Closely linked to the end of the palate, the finish is juicy (Williams pear), ashy, herbaceous (alfalfa), and lactose-rich (soy). In the aftertaste, flavors of mustard seed and ointment give way to the smoke of a cigar that lingers in the ambient atmosphere long after.
