  • The body is moderately full and offers a small mossy, vegetative note along with sweet vanilla and caramel.

  • Drier than it was on the nose, and there's some peat here now. A dry, earthy peat, quite prominent initially but fades quickly. Some coal dust and slightly bitter oxidised fruit. A salty citrus tang, and lightly bitter burnt toffee.

  • smoky and oily, with some pretty sharp peat and a gingery heat. Chalky and zesty notes. A little salt. There’s also a more rounded, vanilla-infused side but I’m only getting a small glimpse of the tropical fruits the distillery is promising.

  • Enters the mouth with great authority and spreads across the palate with buttery smoothness carrying all the flavours the nose suggested.
