This is surprisingly peaty and briney but less punchy than your peated Islay offerings. It has a nice ABV for a Japanese whiskey at 45% and a good oily mouthfeel.

Passed on the nose with some fruit, iodine and vanilla. The palate is sweet rich with baking spice then slightly floral. The finish is slightly peated and peppery.

BLIND TASTING
Nose: bourbon wood, crisp, bright
Taste: savory, crisp, vanilla, hint of spice, wisp of smoke. Springbank? Peat comes through more noticeably with a little time. A little salty. Maybe bowmore
