Medium/full body. Nose: Beuatiful smoke and finally cma smell that peat, i mean really get the peat. Tatse: vanilly/caramelly pepper and salt, it tastes like a sea weathered ship, a stormy sea night in a cup. Finish: very smooth and full quick finish. Great mouth feel, really coats your whole mouth. More citrus notes come out with a little water, but I prefer it without. The gentle Scottish sea in a glass. Feels more delicate/eligant than the Lagavulin 16, would love to comapre them side hy side.
