  • Some smoky or peaty character is evident towards the finish. (2024 Bronze Medal)

  • Curiously, the first impression on the palate is of a sugary chocolate espresso with a spicy clove boost. The coffee roast is a very noticeable sign (maybe the sheep drank a lot of it?), and pleasantly accompanies a warm dram with moist, mellow cereal compote, salted caramel, ripe fruit (banana, pear) and sliced ginger.

  • Medium body and prickly-creamy (Hah!) mouthfeel. Again the strangely sweet and green smoke, now mixed with lots of pepper (white, black, rosé and light chili).

  • The taste is tart, tangy, and light with white pepper, lime, lemon zest, dried flowers, and a hint of butterscotch

  • This begs to be poured over ice cream; sweet malt and banoffee caramel spill over the taste buds with toasted almonds, ripe banana, and an edge of spice.
