Copper color. Nose is complex, dominated mostly by a light peat smoke. Further inspection reveals a subtle floral component, vanilla and oak. Medium body. Palate has a lot of peppery spice, with light vanilla and oak, and more peat smoke on the backend. The long finish is where this whiskey really shines. The peat is joined by sweet cherry syrup and vanilla, warming spices, with a peppery tingle on the lips.
