  • Fragrantly sweet on the nose, with peat smoke, sea shells, cigar box, and pronounced sweetness of dried strawberries.

House Review
  • Nose:

    The nose is gentle, honeyed and peaty, with notes of butterscotch, saline, leather, fresh apple, grass.

  • Taste:

    Moderate mouthfeel. Smoke and brine meet ash, red grape, olive, leather, waffle cone.

  • Finish:

    The finish leads with chestnut and leather, which smoothly transitions into cracked pepper, gentle peat and plum.

  • Overall:

    A nice scotch. Perfect for peat fans but balanced enough that I think it will work well for a wider audience.

  • Score:
