Ocean, standing there on a cliff, breathing in the salty air, feeling the briny taste. The nose is very different from all the other scotches I have tried. It's not medicinal, not smoky, no burn, it's sea and ocean indeed. The palate is complex there is peat and smoke and brine and salt. It's too smooth, goes easy, waaaay to easy. The Finish is long and pleasant too. It's one of my new favourites. Love it
