Member Ratings and Notes

Adam

Nose of shoe polish and peat. Taste of some sweetness, peat, medium-full bodied. Overall, kind of one-dimensional, but nevertheless interesting. Rumor has it this is Lagavulin and it almost has to be.

Nose: tequila and peat, not inviting. Palate quiet then crescendo of peat, but not warm and friendly. Simple, steady, one-note, not complex. Balance is too balanced, uninteresting.

Chris

N: Peat, pretzels (with salt and pepper on it). Peppercorns, brine.
P: Big smoke and peat, sweet for a second but then goes dry and sooty...
F: ...and the theme continues in the finish.
Rumor has it that this is... damn, I just looked at Adam's notes.
