Nose: A high-energy aromatic explosion of smouldering peat embers, roasted vanilla, candied ginger, and maritime cigar wrapper
Palate: Unctuous and rich, featuring a complex battle between thick bacon fat smoke, salted caramel, and sharp baking spices on a velvety, waxy mouthfeel
Finish: Long, intense, and smoky, leaving a lasting impression of ashy wood, sea salt, and a lingering warming spice.
