Nose
A gentle smokiness with hints of peaty ash, followed by sweet malt, honey, and lightly roasted grains.
Palate
A rich peat presence spreads with ashy smokiness, harmonising with honey, caramel, and vanilla sweetness. Smooth flavours of caramel, vanilla, and candied orange peel, with a subtle herbal bitterness and maritime saltiness.
Finish
Medium length, with lingering warmth from the smoky notes and sweet malt. Smooth, balanced, and rounded off with a refined peatiness, and the fruitiness of the wine casks returns subtly.
