Not your typical Oirish piece of business, lad. Nose is tobacco smoke, dusty charcoal, with a more mossy, muddy peat. The smoke itself is minimal, save a touch of tobacco leaf. A lemon meringue or custard hits the back of the nose in a big way. A little bit of metallic / penny / 9v battery.
The taste is more mossy; the peat is not your classic smoked stuff, but it definitely is in the mix. More lemon, but in the taste it is lemon Pledge. Just a touch of sawdust.
The finish is cut tobacco, charcoal, a tinge of plastic. There is a finished wood aspect that dovetails nicely with the lemon Pledge. Some more metallic battery-lickin goodness.
