Nose: A vibrant fusion of dry earthy peat smoke and sweet caramel is layered with bright citrus zest, vanilla custard, and hints of tropical fruits like banana and mango
Palate: The oily, full-bodied texture delivers an initial punch of smoky heat that gives way to a rich medley of honeyed malt, apricot jam, and warming spices like cinnamon and black pepper
Finish: The experience concludes with an enduring, maritime-inflected finish where lingering peat embers mingle with salty sea spray, charred oak, and a faint whisper of lemon peel.

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.
