Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
The sweet wine cask brings notes of tropical fruits, and baking spice, intertwining with plenty of coastal smoke.
Palate
A good helping of fruit balances the hearty peat smoke with spiced fruit cake and notes of candied pineapple. Salted chocolate joins in time, with dates and dried orange beneath.
Finish
Layers of seaside smoke and bonfire embers mingle with juicy dried fruits, sweet and zesty, with warming spice on the tail.
