Nose: Proppa smokey aroma, like a chesnut roasting on an open fire. 🏕️ Also got sum sweet vanilla notes. 😊 Palate: Reely smooth, with a bitta peat and honey. Quite delish! 👌 Finish: Long and spicey, warms ya right up. Cracking for a chilly nit. 🌧️

Right, here’s what I got from the first dram – no messin’ about. Nose first hit me with that deep, sticky date syrup vibe 🍯, then a waft of old leather armchair. Like walkin’ into a gentlemean’s club. There’s a flutter of dried herbs too, thyme maybe? And a whisper of sea spray, sorta briny, which I weren’t expectin’. On the palate… blimey. Warm honey’d orchard fruits straight off – stewed pears, maybe a baked apple with a crack of black pepper. Then it shifts gear. A lovely oily nuttiness rolls in, walnut skin, and a touch of dark chocolate that’s gone bitter-sweet. Not sweetie sweet, more like that posh 70% cocoa stuff 🍫. The finish hangs about for ages. A gentle wisp of bonfire smoke, like your jumper the mornin’ after a beach fire. There’s a tickle of clove and somethin’ citrusy, orange peel oils, leavin’ the tongue just a tiny bit numb but in a good way, if that makes sense. Mouthfeel is proper chewy, almost. Coats everythin’. A real contemplative sit-by-the-window sorta pour. 🌧️
