Bowmore Legend

This is probably as good a peaty malt as you'll find. I was turned off at first -- too abrasive, too briny. But midway through the bottle I was ready to taste it's rough-around-the-edges charm.

The nose is only mildly peaty, I'd say, with a green apple crispness and lots of wood. Palate is creamier than you'd expect, with sweet notes of butterscotch candy. It takes it's time on the briny finish
