Aged in Château Climens casks (a first-growth Sauternes wine), the rich sweetness has helped to create a massively complex and powerful dram. Elegant on the nose as the smoke and soft summer fruit merge, this explodes on the palate with heady peat and sweet juicy raisins – an absolute stunner.

Tasting Notes

Tasting Notes by Rocky
-
Nose
Pronounced smokiness on the nose delicately balanced by notes of sweeter notes of toffee apples and milk chocolate orange.
-
Palate
Huge. The creamy texture is immediately apparent, then the flavours take over and explode in the mouth. A whack of vanilla spice, lime sourness and sweet orange combine with the peat smoke – everything’s in harmony here. Adding water turns it into a quaffing rather than a sipping dram, but loses some of its charm.
-
Finish
Long, with less warmth than expected and the smoke slowly fading to leave sweet vanilla spice and dryness from the tannins.
-
Comment
Wow! Despite the high abv, this doesn’t need water. The peating level may be high, but everything is so well integrated that it doesn’t hit you in the face. Peated whisky at its best.

Gorgeous Dram, full set of flavours well integrated with the peat and smoke. 60% ABV but definitely no water needed. PC at its best.
