Tasting Notes

Initially intense molasses sweetness, as it warms a dry peat smoke takes over. Pipe ash , raisins and sultanas boiled with nutmeg, cinnamon and cloves. Then toffee apples, a toasted, drying oak and tobacco and leather and yet a freshness a brisk hint of pine and blood oranges even sweet grapefruit.

Critical Acclaim

94 Wine Enthusiast

This blended whiskey opens with mild peat smoke and vanilla aromas; with time, more smoke comes forward. The palate also has a peaty core, surrounded by mouthwatering salted honey and finishing with black licorice and a grind of black pepper.
