Nose Fresh tarmac on a hot day, dense, oily peated barley and briney salinity, before elegant vanilla pod, frangipan and honeyed oatcakes join.
Palate Incredibly soft at the start, with creamy malt and vanilla fudge cushioning herbacous, coastal peat smoke.
Finish Plenty of peat character lingers, whispers of medicinal iodine develop, balanced by poached plums and zesty notes of key lime pie. These are joined by more vanilla cream, and cracked black pepper.
