Smoky Shores

Peated Advent Calendar

Nose almost grassy, grapey… plenty of ammonia too! The peat is definitely forward, but not overwhelming. Green and yellow flavors in the front of the mouth as the peat fades to caramel and then leaves a chemical flavor with vanilla undertones. And boy does that flavor stay! Was part of the Spirits Co Peated Whiskys Advent Calendar.

I love a smokey dram, but this has been one of my favourites so far! Briny, smokey, a little sweet but not syrupy, with a finish of chocolate. Very cosy, warm, and comforting.
