Maltiply Tasting Profile
Nose
Rich and fruity with intense peat, salty sea breeze, rum-soaked raisins, citrus zest, vanilla, seaweed, and hints of chocolate, earth, and leather with plums.
Palate
Thick and chewy, with notes of tropical fruits, peat, salted chocolate, seaweed, citrus zest, blackberry, damp earth, musty bookshelves, wet leather, caramel, coconut, and nuts. Sweet and luscious with a salty tang.
Finish
Deep and smoky with hints of peat, black pepper, sea spray, salt, and long-lasting oak. Engaging and enjoyable with a maritime character.
