Nose
Rather mild and sweet on initial entry, with old sherry and a fair bit of salinity. Initial sweetness augmented by a dirty and slightly ashy note reminiscent of engine oil and kerosene, with hints of muddled mint, rapeseed oil, eucalyptus oil and some peat.
Palate
Sweet, spicy, dirty and vegetal, with more of the old sherry and eucalyptus oil intermingling with the engine oil, kerosene and a slight hint of peat.
Finish
Not explicitly detailed, but the overall profile suggests forthright and nuanced maritime and coastal flavour profiles unique to Campbeltown.
