The nose is roasted pear and apple. The peat is very subtle compared to an islay but its there. Funky old cheese is also present. The salty, brine shows up nicely as well. The palate is close to the nose. The mouthfeel is a little thin when compared to Springbank but not compared to most youngish Scotch. There is some smoke and tart candy with wisps of malt and that funky cheese. The finish is medium with some gin like herbs showing up. A very different whisky experience that i enjoyed
