Love the peat, funk and proof. Seems a tad one dimensional and overall I prefer the cousins (glengyle and springbank) as I get a bit more in those expressions. I’d love to try more cask finishes in the longrow family but they’re hard to find and expensive in my neck of the woods. There’s a sweetness to this that makes this Eminently drinkable.
Update: bumped up to 4 stars. This becomes really nice the longer it opens up. My New Years resolution is to not use “funk” to describe campbeltown scotch. So let’s call this vegetal peat. It’s fantastic.

Yeah, I hear those red wine finishes are sensational! Very expensive and hard to come by though :(
