Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep amber with warm honey-gold hues.
Nose
Warm honey sweetness intertwined with seaweed spices and bonfire smoke, delivering a rich, maritime peat aroma that hints at decades in cask.
Palate
Lusciously full and slightly oily, it opens with honeyed sweetness blended with briny seaweed spice and medicinal peat, then layers of bonfire smoke and vanilla from the Bourbon cask. A long, expansive finish of ash, iodine and coastal minerals lingers in a maritime glow.
Finish
Long, luxurious finish with warm honey sweetness that glides into seaweed-spice and bonfire smoke. Peat remains prominent, tapering to a saline, smoky echo that lingers with a refined coastal edge.
