Great but not excellent. I used to spend more time with a malt like this, telling myself that its “elegance” needed to be explored — and maybe that’s correct to say. This hits me with oak, grassy stuff, pepper, citrus background, and the peat is there... great stuff, but I'm probably biased for expecting more.
Fruit, saline, lemon curd, meringue, toffee, nuts and a light spice accompanied by dried fruit and smoke. It’s a nice bright aroma.
PALATE
Full an warming it’s layered with crisp notes of fruit, lemon curd, creme brûlée, toasted grain, smoke and light bit of dried apricots all strung together in perfect balance.
FINISH
Long and peaty with notes of fruit, saline and malt intertwined.
- Has the kind of lovely bright aroma, crisp balanced palate and long meandering finish that puts a smile on my face. -
