Nose

Opens with a sweet and savoury character reminiscent of candied bacon and frazzles crisps. Time in the glass unlocks a more floral style with an intriguing mix of cut grass and beach bonfire.

Palate

A sophisticated citrus style leads the way with notes of red grapefruit, candied orange and dark rum soaked sultanas. Sweet peat is a constant as well as salted crackers and peppery oak.

Finish

The sweetness fades leaving lingering smoke, spice and ashy peat. Now more herbal notes emerge with fennel, star anise and caramelised nuts all wrapped in a creamy smoke blanket.

Nose

Sweet, vibrant and very fresh on the confectionary style nose. Vanilla, honey and toffee initially from the bourbon cask leaving its mark before a wave of citrus zest and light smoke notes take over.

Palate

The sweetness translates to the palate but this time it is more oak and peat laden. Also, now more sophisticated with a honeycomb and chocolate character. late spice notes of cinnamon and allspice tone down the sweetness a little.

Finish

Long, with the smoke and peaty notes coming to the fore. A touch buttery and a mocha character remain along notes of oak char, pineapple and honey on toast.
