Nosing: Rauch musty earthiness. mushroom. Malz Kräuter Heu Zitrus very reminiscent of the Benriach Curiositas 10. chocolate chip cookie, slightly burnt on the bottom.

Taste: Rauch Malz Kräuter more earthy notes. Gras mixed with smoke. box says 50ppm, maybe i'm just getting accustomed to peat, but it's a very friendly peat compared to Islay. More integrated than some other Highland peated whiskys. Süße Vanille Karamell well integrated with the smoke.

Finish: Lagerfeuer Früchte Öl Mandeln Kräuter Honig

Comment: a solid non-Islay peated whisky. stands on its own. one of the best for non Islay peat.
