A classic Islay scotch with a medicinal essence. The color is light gold, but not bright. There is a tinge of cool green undertones almost as if a gold coin from a sunken ship oxidized after settling in a bed of seaweed. On the nose, there is instant peat smoke followed by brininess. I pick out the distinct smell of bleu cheese stuffed olives. Funky. Vinegar. Salt. The taste is initially sweet and smooth followed by a cloud of smoke. The finish is long with the salty seaweed and medicinal flavors lingering.
