Tasting Notes
"Opens up on a light peatiness, which is to be expected from a peated cask finish. It goes hand in hand with a salty sea spray and some brine, as well as whisper of vanilla and ripe banana. The palate is fairly dry an earthy, with some soot and tar to boot. There's toasted oak and heather also. "
