Tasting Notes
Colour
Pale gold with sunlit straw highlights and a touch of honey.
Nose
A bright, smoky bouquet of Caol Ila peat, lively and vibrant, layered with creamy vanilla and citrus zest. Fresh lemon and orange peel lift the aroma, while a warm woody spice lingers in the background, giving a polished, oak-driven edge.
Palate
Bold coastal peat anchors the palate, feathered by creamy vanilla and bright citrus zest. Two ex-bourbon casks lend sweetness and gentle oak spice, with hints of toast and white pepper adding quiet backbone. A vibrant smoke lingers into a crisp, citrus-vanilla finish.
Finish
A long, smoky finish lingers with vanilla sweetness and bright citrus zest. Bourbon-influenced oak lends a gentle spice as the peat remains, concluding with a warm, peppery echo that slowly fades into a soft, drying breath.
