There are also small-batch versions of this make. It takes guts to bottle these kinds of youngsters, if you ask me. Colour: gold. Nose: capeesh, it's a full-peater. Remember peat tends to erase (or rather mask) immaturity. In truth this works rather beautifully on the nose, with a feeling of mezcal and white Jamaican rum that's only complemented with abundant peat and ashes. And olives, gherkins, butterscotch and just roots. Rather impressed, I am. With water: it takes water extremely well. A young Ian Thorpe. Grist, flour, ashes, coal smoke, hold on, and bananas! … Mouth (neat): rather hugely smoky, fresh, reminding me of top young Caol Ila with these bountiful ashes. Lemons, naturally. With water: very good and certainly coastal. No coast no peat! Finish: once again, only the finish is a tad bitter and kind of pungent. Salty aftertaste, with lemons. Comments: of course they know what they're doing. Granted, this is not Laph**aig 30 years old, but it is already extremely quaffable. Worth trying in any case
