Tasting Notes
"Some peat, not much, is present on the aroma along with moss, cedar, and barley. Further inhalations expose chocolate and candied oranges. The palate is more spice driven than plush and the peat really doesn't show up until the finish where it is of moderate strength. You're also left with some dark malt and some vanilla."
