Tasting notes：

Nose: Rich, concentrated. Revealing a dark and oily peat, the first scent, of great finesse, is saturated with intense smoke. Complex, the aromatic palette evolves towards fruity (pineapple, pear, apple) and spicy (cinnamon, ginger) tones.

Palate: Delicate, nuanced. Solar, the palate’s attack is in turn fruity (pear), smoky, resinous (pine), and earthy. The mid-palate evokes a malt floor and barley grains literally rolling on the tongue. The very end of the palate is minty.

Finish: Long, creamy. Barley sugar spreads with infinite sweetness. Milky (agave, almond), the aftertaste hints at a drier, iodine-laden (sea spray) and saline peat. Then, lime flavors refresh the finish.
Profile: Rich and creamy.
