TASTING NOTES BY OLIVER CHILTON, WHISKYMAKER
NOSE - Old-fashioned liquorice, saltwater taffy, fresh oyster shells and citrus spray.
PALATE - Sharp and stony initially, with an intense minerality that quickly becomes sweet
and spiced - rich lemon oil with peat smoke, dark chocolate and crunchy barley sugar. The spice grows, adding stewed apple with cinnamon, along with heavy charcoal smoke.
FINISH - Cinnamon spice slowly fades to a flavour of dried apples and pears.
COMMENT - Plenty of character with a delicate balance of smoke and fruit.
