Description

 

Appearance : Bright, warm amber gold.

Nose : Elegant aromas of ripe pineapple, fresh mountain herbs and a profusion of sweet peat. A huge pungent blast of peat smoke emerges, partnering the peated element perfectly. Full bodied and audacious.

Palate : A fantastic fusion of rich peat and smouldering embers bound together by fresh herbs – oregano, aniseed and chicory in particular. A rush of sweet, wild honey provides a lovely contrast to this lively, intense expression.

Conclusions : Terrific weight and development which leaves a powerful long lasting impression on the palate.
