On the nose heavy brine, something meaty that reminds me of young peated Benriach, lemon, grapefruit pith, vanilla, wet gauze, iodine, burning tire. On the palate a good hit of vanilla, charred chili pepper, pear, citrus fruit, salty barbecued meats, soot, ash. This is pretty decent, particularly for the price at under $50. It's got a lot of peat and smoke, so it scratches the peat itch in a fairly satisfying way, but also adds a little fruit and vanilla.
