Nose
Peat smoke, maritime salt, a gentle warmth. The Islay malt dominates — brine, iodine, a gentle medicinal quality. Beneath the smoke, honey, a gentle malt and a clean warmth. Approachable Islay character.
Palate
Smoky and maritime — peat, salt, a gentle sweetness. The twelve-year-old Islay malt provides genuine smoke character. Mid-palate brings vanilla, a gentle warmth and a clean malt sweetness. At 46%, good body.
Finish
Medium-long, with peat smoke and a maritime warmth.
