Nosing:
Rauch Lagerfeuer Medizinischer Rauch Grapefruit Jod Salz
The nose is peat/wood smoke and light antiseptic as well as grapefruit/citrus and slight saline/marine notes.

Taste:
Rauch Medizinischer Rauch Süße Salz
Smoky and somewhat phenolic but also quite sweet compared to other Islay malts I've had. There's a salty tang that hits just before the finish.

Finish:
Süße Eiche Malz
Medium length with lingering sweetness

Comment:
It can take a drop of water but not much.
Peated whiskies aren't generally my thing as far as preference goes, but the peat isn't so over the top as to put me off in the way that other bottles from Islay have in the past. The peat seems to be a bit more smoky than phenolic which I think does it for me.
