Tasting Notes

Nose

Mature with good intensity. Slightly fungal, leaf mulch, hessian, powdered nut, old apricots, chestnut mushroom, peat smoke, treacle toffee, old cupboards.

Palate

Slightly earthy. Rum and raisin, with a hazelnut shell character acting like a filter for the softer more liquorous elements. Balanced.

Finish

Peat smoke comes through, giving extra depth.

Comment

Old brocade, velvet curtains, tweed.
