Tasting Notes
Colour
Rich deep amber with coppery-bronze highlights and a whisper of mahogany, a warm, luxurious glow.
Nose
Aromas unfold with dense peat smoke, mingling with medicinal iodine and sea-salted air. Underneath, sweet vanilla and toffee layers drift through the heft of the age, while subtle leather, toasted oak and a whisper of dried fruit add complexity. A touch of brine lingers, inviting another contemplative sip.
Palate
An oily, full-bodied palate of peat smoke, iodine and sea breeze, balanced by rich sherry sweetness. Dark chocolate, dried plum and candied orange unfold with toasted oak and vanilla, while peppery spice tightens the mid-palate. The finish is long and maritime, echoing medicinal peat, ash and subtle coastal salt.
Finish
Long, smoky finish with medicinal peat and coastal salt, evolving into warm oak and sherry-tinged dried fruit. The sweetness lingers as the peat fades, leaving a resinous, maritime warmth on the palate.
