The peat is very prominent, but it’s not the kind of meaty, savory peat you’d get from say…a Lagavulin. It’s more of an earthy, mossy type of peat. Afterwards there’s a gentle sweet cream note that takes you through towards the finish. This to me is very much a Lowlands take on an Islay, in that it’s smoky, briny and rich, but all of those qualities are subdued slightly to make for a more approachable dram that goes down like butter. Overall, i like this A LOT, perhaps even as a daily drink given the price.
