Nose
A delicate balance of sweet grain, subtle peat smoke, floral undertones of apple blossom, and a hint of citrus zest. Notes of marmalade, varnish, faint earth, and undergrowth are also present, along with light fruit, malt, and spice.
Palate
Smooth and velvety, with a harmonious blend of ripe pear, honeyed malt, creamy vanilla, and subtle oak. It offers caramel and a pleasant, grainy intensity, with a subtle hint of spice emerging mid-palate.
Finish
Notes of toasted oak, caramel, and a subtle smoky character, leading to a gentle warmth and a long, spicy, and smooth aftertaste.
