My first 'mystery' single malt, which means the distillery is unknown (it's been packaged by someone else). As the name suggest it's heavily peated on the nose with all sorts of oily salts with a hint…

Slightly disappointing nose - maybe I was expecting a lot. There is orange and burnt ginger in there with a tickle of roasted nuts but it leaves you wanting for more. The texture is like silken honey…
