Wow! A nose of beeswax, marmalade, sweet peat, royal jelly, and very subtle smoke. Juicy apricots and honey initially but a big shovel of soot smoke on the mid palate. A peat and chimney smoke finish that peters out quicker than you'd think. This shows a lot of polish but the palate doesn't live up to the promises of its amazing aroma. Then again, what whisky would?
