Peated
Nose : magical and round. The nose evokes a crème brûlée with rich notes of butter, caramel and germinating malted barley. A more Mediterranean note of Corinthian raisin brings a more typical touch. Allowed to breathe, it is a veritable deluge of very concentrated vegetal and floral notes, a sort of prelude to the mineral and salty fragrances that suddenly appear in a surge. Seafood scattered with peppery notes attempts to rival the subtle smoke escaping from the pagodas which inexorably takes us to solid ground and the scent of hot tarmac.
Palate : incredibly expressive for a bottling at 40% ABV. The attack is superbly peaty and salty. It then reveals flavours of lemon, pine and brown honey which linger on nougat and delicious notes of marzipan. This richness then becomes increasing spicy and smoky as the tasting goes on.
Overall : long, delicately salty. Characterized by sweet almond and walnut, the finish wavers between sweet pastry and confectionery.
