Master of Malts Tasting Notes

Nose: Fruity notes of cranberry and thick, ashy smoke open the way for hints of smoked salami, snuffed candle, and burnt chocolate cake. Rich and robust, balancing heavy peat and sticky PX sweetness.

Palate: Dense peat smoke and brown sugar sweetness collide, with layers of smoked honey, barbecued stone fruit, and juicy raisins. Salted peanuts arrive in time, with creamy milk chocolate in tow.

Finish: Earthy, herbaceous peat lingers alongside mixed candied, smoked nuts, maple syrup, cocoa, a touch of brine, and sweet ginger loaf.
