The nose is a blend of fruit and honey underneath hickory, charcoal, and peat. The palette is surprisingly sweet, featuring strong honey and vanilla notes supported by more subtle spiciness and peat. The finish kicks up the spiciness a notch, followed by a slightly bitter smoke note.

Strong campfire smell the nose, with the smoke persisting throughout. A bit young/grassy but a nice middle of the road smoky whisky.
Vanilla and dried fruit nose. Bonefire on first test, and subdues a bit after. Alcoholic burn. Oily and slightly finish.
Smoke and wood on the nose that is reminiscent of a BBQ. The tasting notes are a complex mix of spicy and sweet
Sweet and very salty. Much different from a classic Islay, though not in a bad way. 23-23-22-22=90
Very smooth - a little peat and darker flavor - a little bourbony for me but still good
