Nose: Heavy oak with medicinal notes creeping in, before coming to the fore. Vegetal peat and charred rosemary build, while butterscotch and vanilla sweetness battle through in time.
Palate: Silky sweet caramel, buttery pastry, and layers of creamy vanilla develop into biscuity malt. Stewed apple and creamy macadamia arrive before dried chilli appears. Intense peppery peat warms the tongue.
Finish: Earthen, smouldering herbs tangle with silky caramel. Dried fruit lingers, with a whisper of peppery iodine to wrap things up.
