Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep golden amber with coppery highlights and a sun-bronzed glow.
Nose
Powerfully peated, the nose opens with deep peat smoke and a savory, meaty core. Warm spices—cinnamon and clove—linger over rich earth, while subtle vanilla and oak notes from ex-bourbon casks lend a gentle sweetness beneath the smoky intensity.
Palate
Full, oily and intense, this Port Charlotte coats the palate with heavy peat and smoky bacon fat, edged by charred wood. Warm spices—cinnamon, clove, white pepper—drive sweetness from bourbon vanilla and caramel. Earthy notes of damp soil anchor the profile, while coastal iodine and sea salt lift the finish. Long, peppery, and smoky, with a final echo of ash.
Finish
Long, smoky finish with savory meatiness and peppery warmth. Peat anchors the palate as earthy, mineral notes deepen, while warm spices drift through the finale, slowly fading to a dry, coastal-leather echo.
