Tasting Notes
Nose
Notes of dried fruit, figs, sweet sultanas and raisins immediately open on the nose, followed by soft smoke and mellow oak. As the whisky opens further it reveals leathery notes of tobacco and burnt heather, with marine-tinged smoke balanced with cinder toffee and date syrup.
Palate
Gentle and beautifully balanced, the whisky is sweet and fruity with dried dark fruits and chocolate. The influence of the oak is mellow with warm toasted spices, cinnamon, gingerbread and nutmeg coming to the front. Orange citrus, cinder toffee and honey complement the soft, smoked grain, with notes of peat infused scones, smoked popcorn and salted caramel.
Finish
Wood spices, smoked leather and a subtle nutty salinity round off the complex dram, while soft peat smoke lingers.
