Nose
Both full and elegant. Aroma of wax is ubiquitous. Intense smokiness, reminiscent of Ardbeg. Gentle notes of bourbon vanilla.
Palate
Rich, harmonious. Beeswax. Smoke is more delicate than on the nose, revealing more medicinal tones. Coarse salt.
Finish
Elegant, balanced. Peat drops right by the sea, reminiscent of oyster shells.
