Nose: the sent send me back to my childhood. (Weird I know) but reminds me of being a kid and smelling my grandfathers tobacco pipe. It was a strange smell but also wonderful. I pick up strong peated notes. The smell also reminds me of the beach.
Pallet: a rush of flavor that starts very sweet like honey. Fades quick to any oily peat. It's thick and chewy. The oil costs my tongue. Once I swallow I breath in a feel nothing but mint.
Finish: I feel like lagavulin's one night stand. I'm enjoying all the complexity of its flavor but as I swallow, the feeling is gone. The smoothness is amazing.
