Nose
Floral (white flowers, meadow-flower, daisies), citrus (lemon, orange, zest, marmalade), honey, vanilla, malt, biscuits, and a hint of mint and eucalyptus. Some notes of minerality and a whisper of smoke.
Palate
Intensely malty and creamy with vanilla, lemon (peel, curd, soda), and orchard fruits. Notes of menthol, subtle pineapple, and a touch of peat. Hints of charred oak, gentle oak spice, and a slight chilli pepper heat.
Finish
Long, clean, and warming with lingering notes of citrus oils, soft florals, and delicate oak tannins. Herbal, spicy, and grassy notes with a dry, mineral, and slightly salty character.
