Nose
Phenolic. Tarry. Smoke on a rainy day. Buttery. Farm yard scents. Wet straw.
Palate
Smooth and round. Good balance. Smoky and briny. Dried coconut. Touch of smoked meat.
Finish
Dry, smoky with a slight astringency.
Comment
A well knitted islander. No complexity but a straightforward character.

Rob Allanson

Nose
Wonderful gentle smoke with a slight old school apothecary herbal and medicinal note. There are fresh fruits here too.
Palate
Orange barley sugar with a gentle tug of peat smoke. There is an earthy quality, almost roasted chestnuts and crispy bacon.
Finish
Long and drying.
Comment
An interesting progression from the five and eight Years Old expressions.
