Nose: A fresh sea breeze with salty notes leads the way, followed by soft medicinal peat smoke. Underneath lie hints of lemon zest, roasted almonds and a touch of wet stone.
Mouth: Full-bodied and powerful with a rich, oily texture. Smoke and sweet vanilla are beautifully balanced by roasted malt, black pepper and a hint of citrus fruit. A touch of menthol adds a refreshing twist.
Finish: Long and warming with lingering smoke, subtle spice and a mineral, slightly bitter edge that fades gracefully.
Nose: Sweet and rich, with fruity aromas suggesting baked apple, pear and peach. These are soon joined by a rich caramel note, reminiscent of sweet butterscotch. All these aromas are mellow, round and mouth-watering.
Mouth: Firm and full-bodied, richly fruity from the start, the powerful, fresh taste soon becomes deliciously sweet and salty, with a hint of salt amid the spicy intensity.
Finish: Quite long, it finishes smoothly, dry, slightly spicy and slightly refreshing.
Nose: Enchanting aromas of dried fruit, chocolate and vanilla. Mouth: An explosion of fruity flavors, caramel and warm spices. Finish: A long, smooth finish, leaving delicate notes of oak and ripe fruit on the palate.
Nose: Rich and warm, light wood smoke, honey, leather. Notes of green apple, vanilla and a hint of burnt toffee.
Mouth: Freshly ground spices and sweet vanilla balance notes of smoke and peat fire. Coastal flavors, distinctly salty, sweet notes, together reminiscent of salted caramel.
Nose: Fairly sweet. Fresh, clean phenols immediately assert themselves, with aromas of fire on a beach and wood ash. They are supported by subtle fruity notes, some sweet, suggesting rowan jelly, others evoking unripe currants. With a drop of water, the ash is more present.
Mouth: Unctuous and with a texture that really fills the mouth, very sweet at first then quickly drying, with a hint of salt and a smoky taste of lip-smacking intensity. A drop of water brings out the sweetness even more, but makes little difference.
Finish: Long, powerfully smoky and drying, with a touch of spice that also lingers in the aftertaste.
Nose: Intense and warm. Notes of chocolate, vanilla, honey sweetness and spices. Slightly fruity and floral with a hint of citrus and apple.
Mouth: Christmas chocolate cake. Floral notes add a touch of finesse.
Finish: Long with citrus and green apple notes.
