Interesting flavour profile on the nose, even though you get full smoky and peaty notes. But if you try to get beyond that, you get mint, dry fruit, some faint bourbon sugary notes.
I was surprised that I thought smoky and peaty will dominate everything on your palate after you take a sip. But the initial flavour profile is without any of that. I do get a hint of American oak in there then follow by smoky and peaty notes like an ocean wave until only peaty note left.
For me peaty note taste like lodine, but this is more acceptable than lagavulin 16. If lagavulin 16 is ocean wave then this is your lake ripples.
