  • Warming on the palate, the whisky again kicks off with lovely sweetness, more honey and acidic lemon pepper infusing a silky, oily body. Notes of ginger and baked apples work well with growing elements of cinnamon and dried apricots, all filtered through a wholly approachable campfire-driven smokiness, finishing on a note of binchotan charcoal that is tempered by a modest touch of salty sea spray.

  • A peaty and lightly leathered nose, bits of a chemical aroma, like an inflatable pool toy thatÂ’s just been opened. The whisky also contains some sweet notes, vanilla and honey.
