Tasting notes

Taster Martine Nouet

Nose: Coastal but right into the sea. Seaweed, tar,iodine... Nothing is missing. The smoke rises up and releases creamy notes of toffee. Apple loft.
Palate: Voluptuously sweet with that briny dryness in the back.Hint of kippers (with a touch of butter).
Finish: Lingering,smoky.Licorice.Pepper.
Comment: Peat and iodine are not all. There's got to be texture and complexity. And this one has got it all.

9.0

Palate: Waft of toastyness leads to cooked fruit,Christmas pudding,dark chocolate and fudge.
Finish: Fruity-smokey balance with lingering smoke.
Comment: Compact but abundant.
