Last drops of the bottle.
Nose: briny, caramel, butterscotch, a moderate peat thats more smoky and dry than vegetal/dank. Hints of honey and citrus, there's also definitely a sweet malt note too
Palate: black pepper, maybe even some chili/cayenne here. Though it tastes like it may have lost some proof theres a robust ethanol warmth still. Strong salinity, definitely getting some of the recharred oak here in both wood tannin and some wood smoke. Malt, muted notes of citrus and pear. Theres a decent peat.
Finish: relatively dry, peat phenols settle here. Woody. Its not as long or complex as I previously remember
