- Palate
- Smoked pear, salty apple, oat biscuits with smoked cheese, herbal lime notes, something floral and spicy in here too, peppery ripe orchard fruits. Sweet and oily, with a surprisingly creamy, almost silky mouth feel. Coal embers, blackberry sweetness, chocolate and medicinal notes. Maritime smoke. Marzipan and citrus. Hints of bread. Salted caramel. A viscous and oil rich backbone with salted caramel, marzipan vanilla and crusty malty bread balanced with smoke, fruit and oak.

Cinnamon hearts, vanilla, glorious building peat.
- Finish
- Smoked greek yoghurt, earthy herbal, lime and elderflower cordial, salty goats cheese drying into a lozenge like vegetal finish. Long, slowly moving from sweet tobacco to earthy notes, dry peat and burnt toast. Lingering dry peat smoke with pipe tobacco ash and smoky tea. Dry, smoky and ashy. Long. Medium+ finish, cherry syrup, mineral, earthy, pepper, smoke.
