Definite smoke from opening the bottle to swallowing each sip. It's rather chimney like but it's not in an overwhelming way. There are other notes of cherry and milder ones of nuts from the Sherry cask. Not all that balanced. A little disappointing.

If all blends were like this, I'd feel less inclined to shell out the big bucks for single malts. The nose is subtle here - some dried fruit sweetness, a bit nutty, some sneaky smoke at the end. Then, on the palate - rich, sherry and dried fruit with a hint of vanilla all wrapped in a cloud of peat smoke. It's all of the things I like in a scotch, really. And for a bargain.
