This has a great balance between peat and Oloroso sherry flavors. On the nose both stand out, but they seem well integrated and sort of meld into each other. Earthy, briny, with a sort of fruit smoke emanating. The palate has toffee, salt, raisin, earthy peat, nuts, smoke, berry, dark chocolate. It’s rich and has a nice thickness to it. It’s a really well-made whisky, and so far has been quite a bit better of an experience than I had with the Sanaig. I’m in the 4 - 4.25 range on this one.

Oaky nose with dark dried fruits. Mild peaty smoke with sherry underpinnings on the palate. A deep, yet delicate finish. It’s decent!

Blind tasting Nose: light smoke, oak. Lagavulin Taste: sweet and smoke, nice balance. But if a medicinal finish. Wouldn’t turn down a bottle but would be more of a fallback option. Wood: European oak Distillery?

Smoke, sweet, fruitcake
