Nose
Opens with an oceanic fresh style showing beachy rock pools, warm sand and a harbour-like character.
Palate
Interestingly subtle initially till a mouth puckering saltiness shows, followed by ash, soft summer tar and gentle peat.
Finish
Now it's rather sweet and develops to something gently spiced, smoked, phenolic, coal dusty, sooty and long.
