Tasting Note

Nose
Powerful peat smoke with iodine, seaweed, and medicinal herbs, lifted by citrus peel and charred oak.

Palate
Intense and oily, with waves of tar, smoked bacon, chili spice, and a maritime brine character, balanced by vanilla and sweet malt.

Finish
Endlessly long, dominated by smouldering peat embers, sea spray, and lingering spice.
