Nose
The marriage of grain and Islay peat results in a herbaceous and floral nose, with a light smoky vein, more moist than toasty, with a coastal breeze on delicate aromas of coconut, peach, vanilla, almonds, lemon drop. Fresh and delicate, despite its age.
Palate
The presence of peat is more distinct in the mouth, still in its more herbaceous (and marine) soul, with a more decisive toasting that envelops a more marked sweetness of pineapple, peach, lemon cream, vanilla, honey, malt. Cascade of wild flowers. The whole is pervaded by a breath of lavender and a marked salinity.
Finish
Quite long and salty finish, where the peat takes its revenge with ash sprinkled over vanilla, honey, pineapple and lavender.
