Tasting
How it drinks
Sight
Glazed yellow corn; natural colour, bright with a warm golden hue, medium legs
Nose
BBQ and sweet corn, charred bits of peat. Bold and assertive smoke with underlying sweetness. More intense and savoury than the First Edition
Palate
Meat smoked on an open fire, balsam, caramel, nutmeg, clove, and ginger. Strong smoky profile without blowing out the palate. The virgin oak char adds complexity and a savoury dimension. Full-bodied
Finish
Medium-long finish with persistent BBQ smoke, spice, and caramel. More assertive and savoury than the First Edition. The charred oak influence is more prominent
