Alright, just cracked open a dram of this one and... wow 🥃
First thing hits me is a lovely waft of smoke, proper peaty stuff like a campfire on the moors. Then underneath there's this sweetness comin thru - honey and vanilla, maybe a touch of caramel?
On the palate, it's got that malty warmth init. Get some citrus notes too, bit of orange peel. There's a spicyness there, like cinnamon or ginger, that lingers nicely 👌
Finish is long and warming, very earthy. Can taste the oak comin thru, maybe a hint of toffee at the end. Quite complex for somethin so drinkable.
Overall? Dead good for a cozy night in. Would pair nicely with a bit of dark chocolate imo 🍫
Nose: peaty, smoky, honey, vanilla
