Expect intense peat and smoke aromas. Notes of maritime air, vanilla, and toffee add complexity. The palate delivers a rush of hot spirit and thick, oily smoke. Creamy nutty, citrus, and savory brine notes follow. A long finish brings a lingering sweetness and a salty tang. Enjoy this intense whisky neat to appreciate its full power.
