Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep copper-gold with a warm amber core and a subtle ruby-tinged edge.
Nose
Curiously perfumed and aromatic, a big top note of fragrant lavender tumbles into vetiver and incense candles. Down below, deeper notes of leather and wax dance alongside a rich almond nuttiness. A splash of water reveals gentle wisps of woodsmoke and damp peat moss. Hints of menthol hurl headlong into rich antique leather.
Palate
Viscous and bold, the palate opens with a sparkling chorus of salt, sweet and savoury. Peat smoke blends with eucalyptus oil, minty chocolate and toffee, while smoked pecans, creosote and tar add a resinous, warming edge. Subtle pear crumble and fudge drift in the background.
Finish
A long, lingering finish of salted caramel and cooling menthol, with a soft, menthol-kissed sweetness that lingers alongside peaty warmth.
