This scotch is a nice break from the raw peaty goodness of a Laphroaig or Lagavulin. Don't get me wrong, the peat is still strong with this one, but the Oloroso sherry casks bring a pleasant extra fruit and spice along with a tiny hint of sweetness on the tongue that enhances the taste overall. The only thing about this bottle that might turn you away is the burn, but I can still enjoy it neat, even as a Scotch newbie. I'm not sure if I would rather have this over the Lagavulin 16 or Laphroaig 18, but at the moment I am happy with it being the only single malt in my current collection.
