Saw this for the first time in my area today (I am 70 yo) and it was on sale for $28, compared to regular $37. Had to try it. The bottle states lightly peated, but my very first impression was at least moderately (average) peat. After the bottle has been opened for a day the peat level seems to decrease. I am quite enjoying this. While it is not terribly complex, it is a great balance of malt, subtle honey sweetness, and a nice accent of autumn smoke. To me, right or wrong, this is a great example of a Highland peated Scotch. I should have bought more. Odd that the Distiller review of this does not even mention the peat smoke.
