Nose: Earthy peat, dried fruit, raisins, chocolate, coffee, disinfectant, sherry, and BBQ smoke. Palate: Dried fruit, nutty, BBQ smoke, cardamom, dry wood shavings, spices, with hints of salt/brine. Finish: Medium length. Chilli, white pepper, BBQ smoke, leather, sweet sherry, peat, and a lot of dried fruit (raisins and dates). This bears some resemblance to Laphroaig PX (though the cask strength makes for a much more potent drink. Sweet, chocolate raisins, BBQ, leather - all the Islay characteristics you'd anticipate in a peaty/sherried dram, but amplified by the cask strength. Rich and very enjoyable. I'd suggest one, perhaps two, is sufficient for me, but it's damn good!
