On the nose it's heavy with cherry, some vanilla and chocolate. No surprise on the taste, same as the nose plus a bit of peat/smoke. I also get a very similar aftertaste to Lagavulin 16, just not as strong. I still haven't figured out what it reminds me of, but I love this aftertaste. This, combined with the fact that the peat note is turned down quite a bit makes this whisky far more enjoyable for me. It still isn't a "reading a book and sipping" whisky, but for exploring a complex dram this works rather well. The price is also rather low for a 21 year old whisky, so if you can get it, definatly try it.
