Overall
Score
8.9
Nose
Pungent and phenolic but not hugely peated. Very coastal and citric with almost gristy barley notes, combined with malt biscuits, dunnage, astringent herbs and a touch of gooseberry.
Palate
Full, barley with gentle honey and crisp citrus. Darkens towards the middle as the malt appears along with some dry, woody peat and drier oak notes, although the sweetness balances.
Finish
Superb length. Dry and salty with lingering barley and citrus.
Comment
Beautifully poised and balanced. You have to love its intensity.
