Tasted 10/17/14 : A light, smokey nose that is pleasant. Like a small campfire. Sweet notes can be found. A creamy, soft and smooth palate. Sweetness with a slight peppery note. Medium finish that ends slightly dry. Very good, enjoyable dram that will not overpower you with smoke or peat. A nice balance of smoke and sweetness. The only real negative is that it is somewhat costly and you may find equal or better malts at a lower price, like their own 12 year old malt.
