Nose: classic Ardbeg but restrained and dancing a continuously swirling waltz with tropical fruit and rich vanilla. Initially reminds me more of Port Charlotte. Classic Phenols, salami, campfire, salted limes, scented vanilla candle, charred wood, banana nut bread with chocolate chips.
Palate: creamy, silky, slightly oily. Campfire ash, cordite/gunpowder, rich sweet vanilla, toasted coconut, fresh pineapple, golden raisins.
Finish: black peppercorns, cigar, rum cake, vanilla cream, leather.
