Nose: Tempered and warm with toasted oak, black pepper, dark caramel and roasted almonds. Bonfire-fresh marshmallows and floral honey add softness to the comforting depth.
Taste: Full bodied. A fiery, passionate burst of flavour; peat, rich malt and lively oaky spices delivering an energizing first impact.
Finish: Medium long. Turns fruitier while keeping its steady notes of peat, spice and gentle oak.
Comment: Rock solid!
