Nose: iodine, sea spray, bbq sauce Palate: citrus, salt, herbal, meaty smoke Finish: moderately long, waxy A little light but not bad. Less smoky than I was expecting.

Harsh up front - has a particular kind of peat that lingers

Thin sample

The 3.74 score up top pulls the average toward its category until enough people have weighed in, so a handful of glowing reviews cannot outrank a thousand steady ones.
