Nose
like an embering fire on a beach, that you've just fuelled with some diesel oil. Smokey and coastal. Sweet hints of almonds, or even better, almond butter cookies. Some wax and lemon. Hints of overripe fruits, could this be the wine influence? Quite medicinal as well. Water makes it a bit more feminine, with a tiny hint of vanilla, more wax and hints of fruity wine.
Palate
big and compact, peaty, sweet and salty at the same time. Pepper and citrus. Lots of iodine. Grows sharper over time. Water lifts the sweeter notes, mutes the peat and highlights some zesty citrus.
Finish
peppery and grassy hints, fading on sweet peat smoke.
