The peaty and smoky characteristics present smoke, peat, iodine, and toasted medicinal notes. Citrus flavors are highlighted by hints of grapefruit, mandarin, yuzu, orange, and lemon. The spicy undertones include notes of pepper, nutmeg, ginger, and cinnamon, creating a symphony of flavors that is both complex and satisfying.
