Nose: firmly coastal, with hints of sea breeze, wet rocks and echoes of iodine. In a second layer there are lemons and unripe pears. As time goes by, whiffs of vanilla cake keep growing stronger. There’s only light peat, overtaken a little by oak spice. Overtaken by alcohol as well, I’m afraid, as it’s quite hot and peppery.
Mouth: now more peat smoke comes out. A nice peppery warmth (still some alcohol heat too), with plenty of saline elements, oysters and smoked lemons. A nice creamy sweetness in the background, along with apples, before returning to more mineral and ashy notes. The saltiness becomes louder towards the finish.
Finish: quite long, with a peppery and minty freshness. A mild green leafiness in the end.
