Nose
Smoky, earthy, sensuous. Palate
Light, lively, smoky, toffeeish. Finish
A suggestion of salt. How on earth did that get into the bottle? Comment
Lighter-bodied and drier than the others. I found it a little thin in the middle.
David Robertson
Nose
Rich wood smoke, wild mountain thyme with hints of cloves and cinnamon. Palate
Richly woody with floral and citrus orange. Finish
Woody dryness. Warming cinnamon spice. Comment
Its wood smoke is the richest and easiest character to recognise.
