Not a lot of peat in this PE. Nose is delicate but fruity - more like dried fruit, but somewhat sedate. Apples perhaps. For some reason I'm reminded of sandpaper. On the palate a hint of some cereal notes, and floral gums. A trace of instant mashed potato in there? The apples on the nose have become oranges on the palate. Warming on the finish.
To be honest a bit of a disappointment - none of the characteristics I'm usually hoping for in a Port Ellen.
