Tasting Notes
Official Tasting Notes
Nose: The nose is immediately sweet and sugary, with a warm damp earth and a really peated character.
Palate: The palate shows and intriguing mix of caffeine, phenols, cereal, chimney soot and liquorice.
Finish: The finish is now drier, with more spices opening ahead of coal dust, hazelnuts, cough drops and salt.
