Decently priced single malt. Taste is a bit bland but there is definitely peat to it.

Really easy drinking. A little thin but great flavor. Perfect amount of peat! Mild sweet finish.

Got a sample bottle last week! Time to delve into more Scotch! This one is a bit thin. The nose has some light peat and lemon. I pick up mostly citrus. The taste has a bit of peat, smoke, and maltiness along with some floral notes. Overall, I thought it was ok. Nothing offensive in it, but nothing outstanding either. Honestly, I liked it best when mixed with some Gozio amaretto liqueur in a Godfather cocktail.

Subtle honey and butter on the nose; oak, butter, spice, subtle peat, and a little bitter and astringent; somewhat unctuous; warm and subtly smoky aftertaste

Peaty but not smoky. And you can definitely tell it was aged in a sherry cask.

A little pepper, a little citrus, a little oak, a little peat. Nothing special but nothing bad. There is a tiny bitter note late and a thin mouth feel. But at $32 a good easy dram for the price.
