Nose
Clean and sharp. With a hint of kippers, citric and it's a bit mossy. Then sea-shells, dried shellfish, lineseed oil, a grapefruit and some lemon. It's very fresh and vibrant, really nice! Some fishing nets / ropes and a touch of dried hemp.
Palate
Oh very nice! Citric tones with a hint of peat in the back. It's much more fruity then the nose suggests. Lemon, grapefruits, but also some apples and pears. The fishing nets can be found here as well and a bit of herbs and hemp.
Finish
The finish is long and sweet, with fresh fruits like apples, pears and lemon. A hint of smoke too.
