SPIRIT NOTES
A lovely tingling, sweet peat smoke tantalised our nostrils, while ash, soot and the scent of refreshing lemon eucalyptus essential oil made this an intriguing experience on the nose neat. On the palate there was plenty of sweet peat at first, followed by Dutch beehives (honey-sweetened liquorice) and buttered toffee as well as burnt toast. With a little water it turned towards the maritime and medicinal side on the nose, while the taste became very ambrosial with hints of peat and freshly roasted 100% Colombian arabica beans flavoured with French vanilla – all in all a very delicious and moreish proposition.
