Tasting Notes
"The aroma is robust with bacon bits, campfire smoke, mossy peat, and tobacco leaves. It has a rich and oily mouthfeel with some baked apple pie, toffee and vanilla notes in the middle of all the smoke. There's a peppery bite at the finish and toasted barrel spices throughout giving the dram warmth and depth. The finish is tangy and smoke-driven. Fine to drink at proof, but you can add a splash of water for a bit of added sweetness."
