Wow, so rich that the smokiness is perfectly balanced. A few drops of water and the juicy sherry character emerges along with briny smokiness, perfectly balanced for a wonderful dram.

Intense peat. Spice. Notes of bandaids, spicy heat, caramel, and oil on the body. Pleasant mouthfeel. A hint of vanilla. Similar to Laphroaig, but with a different finish?
Nose: smoky peat and wood. Palate: smooth and full-bodied. Not bad but difficult to acquire.
