Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep amber with burnished copper and honey-gold highlights.
Nose
Peat-smoked, the aroma blends smoked tobacco with tinned peaches in syrup, raisin fudge, aromatic spicy oak and a honeyed herbal sweetness.
Palate
Peat and smoked tobacco rise against ripe tinned peaches in syrup, while raisin fudge adds rich sweetness. Aromatic spicy oak folds in a honeyed herbal core, weaving through the palate to a long, luxurious finish with soft smoke and lingering spice.
Finish
Long, warming finish where peat smoke lingers with smoked tobacco, carried by dried peach and raisin fudge. Aromatic spicy oak threads persist, while a subtle Madeira honey sweetness leaves a gentle, lingering glow.
