"Lemon gold, pale sunlight. No beading at this strength. The first impression - loud and clear – is smoked cheese and smoky bacon crisps. Beneath this is a carbolic note (swimming pool footbath), and whiff of salty sea breeze. The taste is surprisingly sweet then very smoky. A fine example of the make." - Whiskeria Summer 2022
