Tasting Notes
Colour
Warm golden amber with honeyed copper highlights.
Nose
Intricate peat smoke drifts over a hushed bed of honey and toffee, releasing dried fruit, orange peel and a sea-salt tang. Sherry-cask richness threads through caramel and almond, with warm, resinous oak tying it together in a languid, sophisticated aroma.
Palate
Silky, mouth-coating malts with a gentle peat presence. Rich honeyed sweetness threads through dried fruit, orange zest and warm spice, carried by sherry-softened oak. Creamy vanilla lingers in the mid-palate, unveiling a long finish of toffee, cocoa and a subtle ember of smoke.
Finish
An enduring, elegant finish that lingers with refined peat and sea-kissed smoke, unfurling into rich dried fruit, fig and toffee, with hints of cocoa and orange zest. Caramelized oak and warm spice wrap the palate as the smoke gradually recedes, leaving a long, contemplative echo of sherry sweetness and a subtle maritime sigh.
