Tasting Notes:
- Nose: A rich and full-bodied bouquet with aromas of camphor, vanilla, smoke, fresh hay, and tropical fruits like pineapple and lemon.
- Palate: On the palate, the whisky presents itself as complex and flavorful with a slightly oilier peat note, interwoven with mineral salts. A balanced interplay of herbal infusions and maritime plants like salicornia provides a refreshing freshness.
- Finish: The finish is long and concentrated, with ash, menthol, and salt notes that unfold into flavors of lemon, acacia honey, and smoky notes like soot and charcoal. A hint of green licorice rounds off the tasting experience.
