Nose
Bright and aromatic, with notes of citrus fruits, green apples, and a hint of brine. The classic peat smoke is present but more subtle compared to later expressions, complemented by herbal and floral undertones.
Palate
Smooth and balanced, with flavors of lemon zest, fresh herbs, and a light smokiness. A touch of vanilla and honey sweetness rounds out the profile, with a gentle, slightly oily mouthfeel.
Finish
Medium-length, with lingering citrus notes and a delicate smokiness that invites another sip.
