Well this was better than expected but still once again showed me that I am defenetly not a scotch guy. This juice cant compete with a a good bourbon. Got it because it was on special and it said unpeated on the bottle because I assumed it was peat that turned me off from bowmore. Despite it stating that it was unpeated I was still was able to smell and taste the peat ? Why?? Once I got pass through unpleasant nose I was able to still note some good things in it like ripe plums, some vanilla, bitter dry oak notes, plus it has oily feel so that's pretty much the only good things in the whisky. Will not buy again, assume this bottle will last me a very long time as I am not planning on trying it out again anytime soon.
