Tasting Notes
Colour
Bright golden amber with honeyed warmth and a coppery sheen, a sunlit glow in the glass.
Nose
Creamy vanilla with toasted oak spice flows over candy-store confectionery and crisp, freshly peated barley.
Palate
Crisp oak carries candied ginger, boiled sweets and brittle toffee, all enveloped in a deliciously sweet peat smoke that lingers.
Finish
Long and decadent, the finish binds creamy vanilla and toasted oak with candy-sweet spice. Soft ginger and toffee linger as a whisper of peat smoke, carried by a coastal breeze—sweet shop by the beach, spiced with land and sea.
