Tasting Notes
Fragrant, stinky in a good way. Sherried and peaty. Strong on the palate, mature and delicious. Classic port charlotte / Bruichladdich notes, excellent! If you want to wander into some serious peat, this is your spirit.
Peat peat here and a peat peat there. Smooth blended goodness.
Smooth, very smooth — but a little boring. When sipping I feel like an international man of mystery with very little imagination.
Grappa-like, earthy milkiness; nice peaty ribbons running through the background. Cool and sweet. Haunting echoes of peat loiter for a long time.
