Notes

About Peat Bloom: A stunning 33-year-old Creator's Collection malt awaits those looking for refinement and complexity along with their dose of hearty peat! Nuance after nuance ensues as the peat bloom continues....

Tasting Panel Note: On the sea breeze came wafts of smoked trout and coal tar from a trawler carrying hessian sacks of sweet-scented barley grains. Puffs from its polished brass funnel dropped fine ash on to smoky apple sauce sprinkled with a few coriander seeds. Fruity notes developed after a dash of water. Now, sour apples and pineapples rolled across the sandy beach as the hot sun baked the stone walls of the harbour. Gentle floral characters then embraced lavender and elderflower, before sage, thyme and gooseberries were served on lemon tarts with orange chocolate and toffee-coated nettles.
