Tasting Notes:
A powerful and expressive profile opens with earthy peat smoke, charred oak and roasted malt layered alongside dark chocolate and toasted nuts. The palate is rich and oily, revealing notes of smoked citrus, caramel, black pepper and subtle herbal spice balanced by underlying sweetness and maritime complexity. The finish is long, warming and intensely smoky, carrying lingering peat embers, oak spice and savoury depth that showcase the distinctive character of modern Japanese peated whisky.
