Säntis Malt Edition Dreifaltigkeit, 52%,
Price: ● Issue: Summer 2023 ● Reviewer: Jonny McCormick ● Category: Swiss
Peat cut from the moors in Appenzell is used to make peated malt that is then matured in beer casks. The nose has rich woodsmoke, leather, charred oak, bruised orchard fruit, and a mild pepperiness. Unsweetened chocolate, dark fruit, clove, and ginger lead to an intense spicy peak, diluting to leave hazelnut ganache, chocolate brownie, and a gentle smoky character.
