Nose
Condensed milk, fermented butter, whipped cream, salt, honey, oven and fresh bread. Delicate smoky tones reminiscent of a distant campfire, fresh apple and pear, soft floral hints, and a touch of citrus.
Palate
Roasted marshmallows, caramelized walnuts, dried persimmons, and sweetness with citrus acidity of oranges. Full and refined, with a beautiful balance between peat smoke and fruity accents like green apple, apricot, and subtle peach, complemented by light sweetness of vanilla and caramel, and a hint of white pepper and minerality.
Finish
Smooth texture with refreshing citrus acidity, followed by a lingering sweet peaty flavor. Notes of black pepper, citrus peel, and lemon-lime cider.
