Tasting
How it drinks
Sight
Pale amber-gold with rose-copper highlights from the Pinot Noir cask influence; youthful but complex colour
Nose
Medicinal TCP notes with peat smoke influence, redcurrants. Malty barley husks, smoked peanut skins, burnt toast. The Pinot Noir cask adds a red-fruit dimension to the heavy peat
Palate
Softer than expected — peat smoke takes on an earthy, musty quality with creme brulee, vanilla, almonds. Charred meat, spent matches, cherry liqueur, cured meats, black pepper. The Pinot Noir cask tames the 55 ppm Longrow peat into something surprisingly approachable
Finish
Red cola cubes, strawberry laces and marzipan at the forefront of the smoky Longrow finish. Long and warming with lingering peat and red fruit sweetness
