Hamish Says
Nose: vanilla yogurt, salted popcorn, marshmallows and toffee follow a creamy American soda with sugar doughnuts and heather notes.
Palate: there's more thick cream and yogurt, this time with honey, golden syrup and liquorice, before sweet apples, almonds, dried bananas, icing sugar and lemon zest.
Finish: a touch of smoke and dry peat builds with briny maritime influences and subtle mineral aspects.
