TASTING NOTES
COLOUR
bright gold.
NOSE
Lively, original. On the first nose, aromas of daffodil, coconut milk and verbena vigorously push back against the assaults of a mineral salt-rich peat and distillate aromas. Allowed to breathe, notes of green olive, liquorice and aniseed are steeped in a diaphanous smoke and lemon aromas.
PALATE
Powerful, full. Unlike the nose, the attack is characterised by omnipresent notes of oily, earthy, salty, ashy, spicy, chocolatey and herbaceous (cut hay) peat. The remarkably fruity mid-palate (canary melon, grapefruit) gradually becomes delicately creamy and floral (iris, hyacinth).
FINISH
The end of the palate is not only peaty but also especially vanilla.
ABV: 57.1% ABV
