Nose is extremely similar to the Highland Park 12, which I’m having side-by-side with this guy. Light smoked meat and light fruit. On the palate, it’s a little smokier than its nose would indicate, and it’s more iodic than the HP. Whereas the Bowmore 18 is a cranked up Lag 16, this is a Lag 16 toned down a bit. Delicious, but a little thin. Still has that nice medicinal note, and lightly smoked meat. Not as much fruit as the HPs. It’s good, man.
