The Tasting Notes

Nose

FDL's favourite! Elegant, sweet earthiness with seaweed. Boat oil and an Atlantic sea-salt tang.

Palate

Wonderfully balanced with peat smoke. A citrus 'zing', barley and a milky hot chocolate depth.

Finish

Long with a distinct sweet-smoke character, rock salt and a mushroom earthiness.
