        Nose

        Expect immediately oceanic, West Coast of Scotland character, with enticing yet subtle phenols coming through.


        Palate

        The palate reveals leather, malted barley, spices and a honey-glazed smoked meat quality.


        Finish

        The finish is exceptional, with more peat smoke, dried citric fruits and oak bonfire embers (CGL)
