SMWS 53.438 Peat smoke carried on a coastal breeze

The nose evoked memories of gathering amber on the Baltic coast and peat smoke drifting through an Islay village, plus crispy bacon and lemon squeezed over grilled fish. The palate combined incredibly sweet smoke with intense flavours of French lemon tart, medjool dates, caramelised bananas and smoked ham; then salty rosemary, sweet chilli, tar and ash to finish.
