- Nose
- Green apple, kumquat, smoked pineapple, and a hint of nutmeg. Subtle peat smoke with fresh mintiness, sandalwood, and a floral touch.
- Palate
- Roasted chestnuts, charcoal cinders, and oaky sweetness like maple syrup. Medium-bodied with malty sweetness, citrus acidity, and a mild saltiness.
- Finish
- Oaky sweetness wrapped in smoke lingers for a long time, with tropical fruit and ash-peaty character.
