Member Ratings and Notes
Adam
 
Some fruit and smoke, pleasant.  Palate is medium-bodied with honey, fruit and notes of hazelnuts, then smoke enters and takes over in a major way, taking over the finish in a great rush of peaty goodness and pepper that sticks for quite a while.  Semi-dry, just enough sweetness to be there.  Minty and "Christmasy" tinges as well.  Reminiscent of a typical Caol Ila in some ways.  B/B+

Light smokey nose.  Smoke! Dry and evaporative.  Good but a bit one dimensional.  
Andy
 

n: Burning rubber on a racetrack

 

p: More tire.  Salted almonds.  Feels a bit thinner than expected but the finish is long if predictable.
