Nose
Glorious combination of spice and heather, caramelised pineapple and fresh lemon peel with delicate smoke. Big plum and prune notes, broody smoke and some blood orange, with very fruity notes of cherries, green apple, and oak.
Palate
Silky vanilla, hints of coconut, and heather peat smokiness. Creamy like coffee liqueur, with herbs, honey, lemon, and strawberry jam flavours. A big, bold whisky with rich plum and berries, a coarse peat carpet, and robust fruit and caramel notes.
Finish
Long, gentle, and smokey, coating the mouth and lingering with fruit, pepper, and peat. The unique Orkney peat is present, with a faint hint of char and a subtle note of pineapple.
