Tasting Notes
Awards
Nose
Smoked bacon, grilled meats and bonfire ash draw you into this glass before it develops into peat bogs, hearths and soot.
Palate
Everything deepens on the palate bringing more smoked meats, with Cullen skink and wood smoke. Lingering savoury smoke and cocoa endure on the palate.
Finish
A dram to enjoy while Mulling over why peat devotees always flock to Islay.
