Flavor Profile
Peated
The whisky presents pronounced mainland peat smoke alongside confectionery notes and warming spices. Orange marmalade and bonfire aromas dominate the bouquet.
It delivers rich peated character with layers of spice and sweet confectionery elements. The orange marmalade note carries through prominently on the mid-palate.
This cask leaves a lingering smoky conclusion with sustained spice and subtle citrus notes that echo the peated character throughout.
About Tanker fuego: The peated 16 is back, and with it all the mainland smokiness we’ve come to love from this magnificent malt. Whilst some of the more recent peaty 16’s have given an Islay vibe, here we encounter loads of confections, spices and a big old bonfire of orange marmalade!
