TWB Tasting Notes:
Nose: A compelling mix of smoky peat, mingled with sweet vanilla, honey, and light citrus notes, underscored by a gentle hint of sea breeze and oak.
Palate: The palate offers a robust and balanced experience, featuring a harmonious blend of smoky peat and sweet malt, enriched by flavors of creamy toffee, green apples, and a subtle spiciness. The influence of the Islay casks brings a delicate layer of coastal salinity and lingering smoky undertones.
Finish: The finish is long and warming, with the smoky and sweet notes gradually fading into a soft, lingering peatiness, leaving a memorable impression.
