Distribution of ratings for this:
Nose: A rather bizarre nose at first.This one needs time in the glass methinks. whiffs of peat. Some botanicals: pine and salt. A little bit of dried fruit underneath sultanas and plums, not overly sweet.
Palate : A tempest of smoke and ash. With quite some sherry influence here. Much more pronounced than the nose. A lot of sherry drenched sultanas. Quite winey. Some medicinal stuff:iodine, and brine. A true Islay.
Finish: Sweet bonfire smoke. Sherry. Ash. Long and soothing.
In essence It’s Lovely. The nose is less than perfect IMHO, but the palate and finish make up for it. Great sipping whisky, Sherry and smoke with the brine salt and soot. Bring it on.
