Wouldn't drink again, although I could finish it. Strong peat flavor. Perhaps a hit of brandy or tequila? For me: Not good.

Brandy casking gives it a big rum sense. Strong mapley-ness and a firey bite without being stringent
Not very well rounded. High thin and alcohol forward.
like apple butter on rye toast
It was ok. Not my favorite.
2.5. Rough, syrupy finish
