Tasting notes：

Nose:  Rich, deep. The elegant first nose is more suggestive than assertive, until suddenly peat takes over—it is at once oily, rich, ashy, salty, herbal (seaweed) and iodine. Allowed to breathe, aromas of almond milk and agave add to the milky character.

Palate: Full-bodied and creamy. The exuberant attack is deeply peaty, empyreumatic (hail) and mineral (lava). Flavours of straw and earth highlight its rustic character. Finally, notes of porridge add the finishing touches to the very harmonious picture.

Finish: Long, concentrated. The medicinal start of the finish wavers between peat (dryer), smoke (more intense) and candied citrus fruit. The rich aftertaste offers a delicious courgette flower tempura, artichoke hearts and herbal tea (verbena, sage).
