Tasting notes and flavour profile

How to drink it

At 43% it works neat, over one large rock, or with a splash of water to open it up. The smoke is the headline here, so avoid drowning it, a large cube and a little time in the glass is all it needs. There is enough weight for it to work after dinner, particularly with dark chocolate or a strong cheese. Serve at room temperature in a tulip or copita glass if you want to get everything out of the nose.
