Nose: Mainly peat smoke, some dried grass, a hint of sea air. It's hard to pick anything else out.
Palate: Immediately the peat smoke intensifies and brings with it some saltiness. There's a dried cherry quality.
Finish: The smokiness settles and leaves a pleasant dried fruit finish. Medium-ish length.
Notes: It's something I'd recommend to someone who wants an introduction to peat as a standalone experience as that's the showcase here. It's primarily peat on the nose and palate and isn't disguised or hidden by other flavours or over-amplified.
