Thomson South Island Peat Progress Report

Nose: gentle smoke Body: mint and vanilla Finish: medium and sweet with gentle smoke Overall a gentle and well balanced Drink.

Appearance: Straw pale, clear with not sediments. Light legs 👃: Medium peat, hint of malt and sweetness. Palate: Iodine, salt. Medicinal. Sweet finish. Subtle... Vanilla? Medium

light floral nose. sweet cereal and flowers, even honey, but very light and clean finish. little smoke and subtle wood. very different; unique single malt, not to be compared to peated scotches. worth a taste for the floral nature.

No 3 on the tasting list. The peat comes across as younger iodine and rubber. Usually it'd be up my alley but they don't pull it off that well. A younger thinner Laphroaig...it is a progress statement though so time will tell.
