The aroma is intensely halogenic and medicinal, like a hospital pool. It comes along with other peaty aromas like smoke and seaweed, with some apple and malty aromas.
When tasting, it begins with ash, iodine, sweet caramely malt, cinnamon, and a floral kick. It then develops more into more of a malty caramel territory, but doesn’t let up on the ash or iodine. There’s a bit of a seaside breeze, but without the brine that many marine Scotches have. The finish brings forth more vanilla and caramel. The mouthfeel is light but mildy oily like many single malts I review.
Overall, I am glad I got the experience to try this, however it is probably not worth the money compared to other peated whiskeys. It’s all ash and iodine with less of the herbal and BBQ elements.
