Hmm, the nose is very light, but pleasant. Faint peat and smoke met with some floral heather and orange. Sweet hints of cake batter. Palate - neat since it's 46.3...wow, more smoke on it than the nose. Very creamy, almost dreamsicle like. Medium mouth coat of oil on the finish. It has an extremely faint ashtray finish, but it's dry and not enough. Something is missing though, so adding a droplet of water. Brought out more citrus orange on the nose. Great taste still, but the finish, I am just not getting as much as I want.

Hahaa! I mean if you're looking for a great tasting whisky, that it is. But if you want a memorable finish, not there. The nose is beautiful though too, so it's a weird frustration.
Great review, Telex. I believe The Rolling Stones recorded a song about experiences like this...
