Remarkable amounts of charcoal and cigar on the nose, like a smoldering barbecue pit and burnt ends. The palate carries through on that promise, with rich ash and then a burgeoning sweetness of grilled pineapple. The finish lingers beautifully, smoke curling upward from a spent cooking fire. Warm, even hot, throughout. Amazing for such a young scotch. Similar to Ardbeg 10 with more citrus on the palate and finish.

Is that citrus a lemon-lime, or something different? I am hoping for something different. =)
