Andrew's Tasting Note

Nose: a surge of briny smoke, fresh squeezed lemons and thyme; round peated malt, sea salt, play-doh and burning brush.

Palate: very round, creamy and chewy, juicy orange, thick peated malt and Dutch licorice; reamed honey, more lemon juice, mescal, sea salt and play-doh; the brush smoke slowly builds.

Finish: barley sugars, clean smoke, vanilla cream, massive maritime tones, more Dutch licorice and tar. 

Comment: young, but rich and layered; feisty but balanced.
