Description

Nose: Beautiful peat smoke, vanilla, sweet barley damp earth and honeysuckle. Summer flowers are introduced after the initial peaty feeling in a great balance.
Palate: Peat has a domination in the palate. Citrus, peppers, caramel and pine honey accompanies in a round, silky texture. So easy to drink!
Finish:  A pleasing finish with barley, vanilla and stone fruit with the underlying camp fire. A gentle, savory and lingering finish.

“with that honey, vanilla, citrus flavour and an extra layer of delicate smokiness.”
