The nose is soft peat, really smooth, caramel, sweet apple juice, green banana, damp leaves in autumn.
The palate arrives intense, it is briny and really quite salty, with a young burn to it. The peat is actually really nice but I didn’t expect it to be that intense. It is on the more heavy side of PPM for sure.
I just had a Bunnahabhain Toitach A Dha just before this one and they are very very similar - both on the nose and taste. Who knows - maybe it is.

@jonwilkinson7309 I got a Sample from @Der-Duesseldorfer but my local whisky shop had it is as well a few weeks ago. It is not very expensive, it is NAS and there is no distillery disclosed. The only hint you get is that it is a single malt and that it is from Islay but after tasting it that it something you can recognize on your own. Worth a try and you also do something good for out oceans because you directly support Sea Shepherd with it since they released this awesome looking bottle as a way to fund-raise their NGO. I will try to get hold of bottle when I see one - now that I tasted it not just for the look of the bottle.
Very interesting! I've never heard of this whisky. where did you find it?
