Nose: Intense aromas of bonfire smoke, medicinal peat and iodine are lifted by sea spray and fresh lemon zest. Sweet notes of vanilla cream, treacle and warm baked bread emerge beneath the smoke, supported by gentle charred oak.

Finish: Long, powerful and wonderfully smoky, with lingering medicinal peat, maritime salinity, warming oak and soft bourbon sweetness gradually fading into smouldering embers and coastal freshness.
