Tasting
How it drinks
Sight
Light gold with greenish tinge; bright and youthful, fast thin legs
Nose
Sweet peat smoke — not medicinal but honeyed, with lemon curd, vanilla, fresh barley, and tropical fruit. Japanese peat character is distinctly sweeter and less aggressive than Islay, with floral undertones
Palate
Medium-bodied. The peat is present but wrapped in sweetness — smoked honey, lemon meringue, toasted marshmallow, and vanilla cream. Young and vibrant with citrus brightness cutting through the smoke. Tropical fruit (mango, passion fruit) provides an unexpected counterpoint
Finish
Medium finish with lingering sweet smoke, lemon, and vanilla. The peat fades to a gentle warmth rather than an aggressive burn. Clean, bright, and refreshingly different from Islay peat
