Nose: Smoke and tar start the show, slowly fading away but keep dropping by now and then. Like nosing a slowly burning driftwood. Sugary peat is the main factor, with barley and a little touch of salt.
Taste: Malt is very fruity, with powerful peat and a touch of honey. Water adds nice tones of crispy licorice with some smoke deep in there.
Finish: Long, with dry and sugary notes and peat. Cigar smoke and coffee hits the aftertaste. Great finish!
Balance: Greatly in balance with a wonderful finish. Complexity and smoke with some nice sherry influence, this is whisky heaven.
