Notes on the label: Nose: Earthy smokey peat and salty ocean breeze. Palate: Pungent peat smoke, chewy sweet malt, pepper, tar and a touch of iodine. Finish: Long and warming. Smokey ashes of the peat fire. I get band aids and sweet, smokey brine on the nose. The palate is semisweet, creamy, oily and viscous. The finish is medium length and warming with some savory, sweet notes. Great value for $18.99 at Trader Joe's.
