Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep amber with coppery-gold highlights and a mahogany glow.
Nose
Powerful maritime peat and resinous smoke rise first, laced with sea spray. Beneath, rich sherry notes - prune and fig - mingle with dark chocolate, espresso, and a hint of orange zest, all wrapped in vanilla caramel and toasted oak.
Palate
Silky and full-bodied, the palate unfolds peat smoke braided with rich sherry sweetness. Dark fruit compote—prune, fig, raisin—meets cocoa, toffee, and espresso, while saline mineral notes add a coastal bite. Spices and oak linger through a long, warming finish.
Finish
Long, warming finish that clings with smoky peat, maritime brine, and sherried sweetness. Dried fig and raisin unfold, hints of cocoa and espresso darken the mid-palate, while spice—pepper and clove—fades into a coastal, resinous glow that lingers gracefully.
