Tasting Notes
"You can almost hear the seagulls flying over Loch Indaal when you open this bottle. The minute the cork is popped: Heavy smoke, bonfire with a wet seaweed beach on the backdrop. The palate is slightly sweeter than expected but continues with the earthy, ashy appeal of the bonfire. With a little time, smoked BBQ pork chops appear as well. The finish is dry, peppery and slightly briny. Not for the faint at heart but definitely a peathead's dream dram."
