Sea Shepherd Islay Single Malt

Barbecue smoke, gasoline damp tarmac, sea salt, mint, very oily, rich malt

The nose is soft peat, really smooth, caramel, sweet apple juice, green banana, damp leaves in autumn. The palate arrives intense, it is briny and really quite salty, with a young burn to it. The peat is actually really nice but I didn’t expect it to be that intense. It is on the more heavy side of PPM for sure. I just had a Bunnahabhain Toitach A Dha just before this one and they are very very similar - both on the nose and taste. Who knows - maybe it is.
