Tasting Notes
"There's subtle notes of seaweed, honey and a slight minerality. The peat influence is gentle and herbaceous. There's some soft orchard fruits, as well as flax hemp rope. The palate is oily with charred peanut skins and gentle, earthy smoke, as well as a subtle salinity and green olives. A whisper of damp oak and honey are found too. A very convincing debut for Ardnamurchan."
