Nose: smoke, ash, briquettes, and smoked meats. Peat, salt air, seaweed. Some sweeter malt peaks through a little, a hint of brown sugar and slight dried fruit elements.
Palate: big peat and smoke here initially. Significant ash/creosote. Definitely some honey glazed BBQ meats. Strong funky peat and moderate salinity. As it coats the palate, more sweet elements come out, caramel, honey, chewy malt.
Finish: ashy, brisket slathered in BBQ sauce. Lengthy. Phenolic elements come in late and linger for a while.
