Starts with heavy notes of leather that leads into strong peat and some smokiness. Spend a little more time enjoying the aromas and it begins to show you that briny sea salt, almost as if you're at the shore. Then it gets a little sweet. The first hit to the tongue is surprisingly mild and the sweetness can be almost honey-like, but it takes no time at all for the strong peat to come roaring in. After that, the brine is back with some brightness - maybe lemon. A peppery kick to finish will leave your tongue tingling.
