Nose: Delicate orange peel, apricot, and popcorn sweetness mingle with maritime seaweed, subtle pipe tobacco, honey, vanilla, and boiled sweets.
Palate: Light and zesty oak spice is joined by rich bonfire smokiness, waxy honey and vanilla notes, sea salt, seaweed, white pepper, and sweet spice.
Finish: Lingering and elegant with notes of honey, stormy maritime notes, and ocean breeze, with a long, ashy, and peppery kick.

The mix of bonfire smokiness, sea salt and honey gives this a clear maritime character, while vanilla and pepper add welcome contrast. At 46% ABV, it has a straightforward strength reference; the notes sound appealingly balanced rather than purely smoke-led.
