Tasting Notes

Nose

Pungent, intense, marine-like, a sweet minty note backed with a touch of lanolin. Good balance, with some creamy popcorn notes.

Palate

Fragrant but almost friable character: cashew, brittle toffee. Peat smoke, light nuttiness.

Finish

Honey, then ash.

Comment

Good balance. Doesn't like water. Start here.
