Producer Tasting Note

Aroma: Rich aromas of sun ripened red apple with delicate sweet spice. Notes of strawberry liquorice with tangy citrus elements give way to subtle smoked kipper notes.

Taste: Intense: mouth-warming crushed black pepper is followed by flavours of baked apple. Traces of fresh orange entwine with amture oak. A slight herbal edge develops.

Finish: Long and sweet on the finish with whisps of peat smoke.
