Tasting Notes
"Son of a Peat is aptly named; though its components come from three regions, the signature Islay peatiness comes dominates the profile, backed by a maritime character that perhaps comes from the islands. Sherry barrel influence is comparatively subtle, and some lighter notes include marzipan and pine. It's a fun peated Scotch, not over-the-top but with plenty of smoke and brine to keep Islay lovers happy, and at a pretty reasonable price."
