One of the smoothest, well-balanced and controlled, sweet-peated drams I've had.
Nose: Smells like I'm smoking meats over hot coals. Slight hint of lemon zest with a subtle nose of sweetness.
Palate: Interestingly not overpowered by the peat here - sweet apple cider with the lemon zest shining more here. The meat we smoked earlier is more prominent.
Finish: Long, smokey-peat finish - well drawn out, strong Lapsang Souchong tea.
While not one to blow a Peathead out of the water, this dram is well-balanced and refined. So incredibly smooth and classy.
