Nose: Powerful, fresh-clean, and growing in complexity like a gathering storm. Sweet maltiness with ripe red berry fruit moves to smoke, brine, and an explosion of pepper.
Palate: Mellow and rich, then very spicy: a pure, tongue-coating sweetness joins a nutty smokiness to embrace those spicier notes.
Finish: Drier and of medium-length, with a lasting, smooth aftertaste, in which light peaty burnt embers can be found.

Nose: Balanced and fresh, the whisky has brine, lemon zest, apple, and pears on the nose, followed by floral, vanilla, malt, and peat aromas.
Palate: It's soft on the palate with a pleasant sweetness, honey, vanilla, cedar, black pepper, and smoke.
Finish: Finishes with coconut, peat, and a touch of almonds.
