Nose: Apple, vanilla, sweet cream, peat smoke, bubblegum, raspberry
Palate: without water - sharp, smoke, light body. With water - much smoother, sweetness comes through, smoke stays, vanilla cookies, slight vegetal, seaweed
Finish - long, spicy, warming, peat, iodine, oak, leather
Awesome caol ila example. High ABV gives perfect example of w/o vs w/ water differences. Fun to drink
