Tasting Notes
Colour
Burnished amber-gold with coppery highlights, radiant and inviting.
Nose
Bright grapefruit and tangy citrus rise from a bold peat smoke, while the Grapefruit Sour cask finish adds tart, zesty brightness that lingers with coastal peat and a whisper of sea air.
Palate
Bright grapefruit zest and tart citrus surge over a backbone of rich peat smoke. The Grapefruit Sour cask finish injects crisp tang that cuts through malt sweetness, with vanilla and toasted oak threading through. The finale lingers as citrus-peat with a refreshing mineral bite.
Finish
Long, zesty finish of grapefruit rind and tangy citrus, threaded with soft peat smoke that lingers. The Grapefruit Sour cask adds a tart, refreshing bite, slowly fading into warm, smoky sweetness with a touch of mineral complexity.
