Tasting Notes

We imagined sitting on the top bench of a sauna while water infused with mountain pine oil was poured on to the hot stove creating a spicy, aromatic steam that immediately filled the room. We could feel the heat creeping up, relaxing and invigorating. Following the addition of water, we were moved to a place where mountain pines clung to sand dunes as we made our way down to the bottom bench and enjoyed a sweet smokiness which reminded us of potted shrimps. At eight years of age, we combined selected hogsheads from the same distillery into a variety of different casks to develop further. This is one of those casks.
