Nose
Complex yet not overwhelming, with notes of burnt caramel, dried fruit (raisin, sultana, candied orange peel), malty cereal, oaky wood spices (cinnamon, nutmeg), and a whiff of distant peat smoke.
Palate
Rich and full of impact, instantly malty with sweetness (honey, vanilla, cereals, caramel), backed by rich dried fruits (sultanas, raisins, fig), zesty orange, and a good pinch of wood/baking spice. A nice hidden smoke comes through midway.
Finish
Light and refreshing, with warming, slightly drying wood spices (cinnamon bark), bittersweet orange, and fading peat smoke. It can be dry initially, followed by a raisin-y sweetness with a peat cape.
