Tasting Notes
Tasting Notes
A full bodied nose of earthy peatiness with a touch of iodine and sea salt. Initially sweet on the palate with peat coming through, a definite honey note takes over giving a smooth mouth feel. The finish is long and lingering with the peat fading slowly and the honey giving a pleasant aftertaste.
