Tasting

How it drinks

Sight
Pale straw gold; very light and bright with thin delicate legs
Nose
Creamy and lemony. Burnt caramel, butterscotch, dark earthy sweetness. Dark chocolate, malty oat cookie dough, and a hint of sultana. Lighter peat than the 12yo
Palate
Sweet lemon meringue pie with soft mouthfeel. Peat arrives mid-palate but restrained — soothing wood smoke rather than burning tyres. Retains sweetness throughout. Approachable and gentle
Finish
Dry, sooty, and moreish. Clean finish that invites another sip. Light coastal minerality fades gently
