Nose: pleasant, mild notes of peat and sea salt, with hints of orange peel in the background. Taste: the cask strength is evident, with notes of peat, black pepper, lemon, and brown sugar. Finish: the finish is surprisingly light for a cask strength,
A refined spirit, in a positive sense. It's quite smooth for its potency. The peat is prominent, yet sweet and harmonious. I give it a 4.5, tying for second among the samples I tried from Feis Ile 2017.
Same style and price bracket, best rated first.
