Tasting notes：

Nose: Fine, rich. On the first nose, notes of peat are nuanced by fruity (lemon), ashy, saline and vegetal (ivy, grass) scents. Allowed to aerate, the aromatic palette becomes more vanilla and candied (pear, mirabelle plum), then spicy (clove, nutmeg).

Palate: Lively, precise. Like the nose, a multifaceted peat reigns over the attack. Finely liquorice, rooty (ginseng) and saline, the mid-palate evolves towards vanilla and fruity registers (pear, apple). The finish is spicy (saffron curry) and lemony.

Finish: Long, slender. Pleasant anise and mint flavors refresh the taste buds. Evoking dry peat, the aftertaste reveals original notes of basil and oregano. Gourmet, the finish reveals praline candies and lavender honey.
