TBWC Fary Lochan 6YO 500mL

The nose is aromatic and softly smoky, opening with notes of dried herbs, toasted barley, and honeyed cereal, layered with nettles, pine, and soft vanilla. Subtle tones of lemon balm, green apple peel, and fireplace ash rise with time, giving it a rustic, forest-like charm. On the palate, it's light-to-medium bodied with a distinctive herbal smokiness. Flavours of pear drops, malt biscuits, and sweet hay unfold first, followed by white pepper, chamomile, and smoked herbs. The nettle smoke adds an earthy, almost tea-like bitterness, which balances the gentle sweetness of the malt. A touch of caramelized nuts and soft oak spice lingers mid-palate. The finish is clean, dry, and slightly warming—leaving behind notes of grassy smoke, fennel seed, lemon zest, and a whisper of charred wood and mint.
