Nose

Soft smoke, light fruitiness (mainly yellow apples), some red berries, lemon pie, toffee, hint of vanilla, wet chalk on the background. Water releases sweet caramel and earthy notes with touch of grilled bacon. Later come very light farmy notes.

Palate

Sweet, ashy, a bit spicy (ginger and white pepper), currant jam. Dilution fades down the smoke and opens orchard fruity notes along with salty coastal touch and some minerality. Very gentle touch of oak at the end.

Finish

Long, somewhat salty, nuts and leather tones, some berry marmalade, cold ashes, fading sweetness.

Conclusion

Very pleasant blended malt, vivid and intense, smoky but not too much. Nice fruity notes adjoin with gentle minerality producing together very good balance. Quite pricey but definitely worth tasting.
