Tasting Notes
Colour
Sunlit golden amber with a warm coppery glow.
Nose
Peat-smoked barley rises on the nose, entwined with vanilla-honey sweetness. Maritime brine and damp heath lend a coastal lift, while lemon zest and subtle almond notes soften the smoke.
Palate
On the palate, bright peat mingles with medicinal maritime notes, tempered by gentle sweetness. Crushed barley, vanilla and honey frame citrus zest and green apple, with a whisper of sea salt for brine. The mouthfeel is creamy and medium-bodied, finishing in a lingering, pepper-kissed smoke.
Finish
Long, smoky finish that lingers with peat, unfolding with vanilla and malt sweetness. A coastal draft of salt and citrus zest cuts through, leaving a warming, clean afterglow that slowly fades but never truly leaves the palate.
