Nose: Definitely needs hand warmth. This gives the Moon Harbour a gentle wood smoke, heather, salt, purple cherries and green peppers. Vanilla, a hint of citrus and minimal red grapes also resonate Palate: Burnt coffee with a good amount of red wine and salt, over which someone is blowing cigarette smoke. Fat tannins with nougat and alcohol-soaked cherries. Dark, rotten wood, a bit of iodine and white pepper. Dry, spicy, noble bitter and special. Finish: Long and noble bitter. Ashy smoke, tannins and espresso linger on the palate for an eternity. Plums, salt and sesame are also added. Really long. Conclusion: The rich tannins, the ancient wood, the strong coffee and the heather make Moon Harbour a very unusual creation. This bottling is especially for nerds who like to try new things.

After malting, the barley was smoked with seaweed from the Bassin d'Arcachon on the distillery premises. Matured in barrels of great Bordeaux Grand Cru wines from Chateau Pipeau.
