Tasting Notes:

Nose: The nose opens with a barrage of citrus fruits; sweet tangerines, oranges, and grapefruit. Hints of soft vanilla are also evident in the background.

Palate: The palate deepens with thick honey, campfire smoke, and earthy notes. The peaty Bowmore character comes through with intensity.

Finish: The finish is long, with oak, peat, and roasted nuts at the forefront.
