Nose: Dry peat as after a moment, a sweetness shines through with luscious caramel, cherry bake well tarts and subtle citrus notes.
Palate: An unexpected layer of sugared almonds with tart white grapes, spearmint and yoghurt. The peat is subtle until the end where it intensifies with earthy shades and honey roasted almonds.
Finish: Aspects of the palate turn into velvet, boiled sweets - think mint humbugs and pear drops.
