TASTING NOTES
NOSE
Opulent and aromatic — gentle peat smoke, fresh herbs, sherried dried fruit, ripe orchard fruit, vanilla, dark caramel, gentle baking spice, mizunara spice, and warm toasted oak — luxurious and beautifully matured.
PALATE
Velvety and rich — gentle smoke, sherried dried fruit, honeyed orchard fruit, vanilla cream, dark toffee, dried apricot, gentle leather, mizunara spice, and integrated multi-cask oak — silky, layered, and harmoniously balanced.
FINISH
Exceptionally long — lingering gentle smoke, sherried dried fruit, vanilla, mizunara spice, dark caramel, and a slow warming oak depth fading gracefully — refined, mature, and distinctively forest-like.
ABV: 43% ABV
