Review by Gordon & MacPhail

Colour

Lightest Gold.

Nose

Gentle wisps of peat smoke swirl around tropical fruit notes pineapple, melon, and passion fruit. Soft briney aromas, reminiscent of a fresh sea breeze, add depth.

Palate

Salted milk chocolate, ripe banana, and vanilla cream flavours develop traces of bonfire ash and embers. A peppery note lingers.

Finish

Elegantly peated with a charred oak edge.
