Nose: mellow maple syrup, roasted banana, fruity dates, apples and spicy cinnamon, caramelised demerara sugar with subtle waves of earthy peat.

Palate: rich fruity pears, roasted banana with spicy cinnamon, caramelised nutty almonds followed by distant waves of pleasant, smoky earthy peat and subtle maritime notes. Very smooth velvety texture, well balanced and complex.

Finish: long lasting with lots of character.
