Tasting notes:
Colour: Golden straw.
Nose: Autumnal. Sweet peat and char. Chimney smoke. Very soft medicinal Islay notes emerge.
Taste: A lovely pleasant sweetness on the palate - butterscotch and custard creams in sync with the peaty, phenolic flavours. Sweet barbeque - crispy bacon on pancakes doused with maple syrup. Salted popcorn. Peppery notes reveal themselves on addition of water.
Finish: Sweet, and a little spicy.
Ideally paired with Islay Chocolate from Chocisky.
