Nose

Robust with plenty of scented smoke (burning heather) balanced by soft Dundee cake/singed orange peel aromas.

Palate

Full and ripe to start, plenty of mellow fruits (sultana, date, fig) then an explosion of dry smoke. A complex mouthful.

Finish

Long, complex, dry peppery heather root

Comment

The distillery character sings out. A muscular, smoky yet rounded malt. Superb.
