Nose
Clean and intense, with light smoke (like a struck match), creamy toffee, fruit (red apple, citrus, honeyed malt), hints of seaweed, heather blossom, vanilla, earthy peat, and spice.
Palate
Sweet to start, then an explosion of smoke, tar, and peppery spice (volcanic pepper, black pepper, chili pepper). Oily texture, with notes of toffee, caramel, dried apricot, citrus (lemon, orange), sweet malt, and maritime salinity/brine.
Finish
Long and satisfying, with lingering smoke, black pepper, ash, brine, and a subtle briny character.
