Interesting to find a peated dram apart from Scotland. This certainly goes against the floral and apple notes I typically found in Irish whiskey. The peat presence on the nose and palate is more subtle than most Islay pours. It leans more to the rubber and iodine end of the spectrum rather than charcoal and bacon. There aren't a lot of other flavors that assert themselves after peat, beyond a light honey sweetness. I can't say I'd opt for this over ardbeg or laphroiag, but it's an enjoyable peaty whiskey for the modest cost.
