Review by: Dr.Whisky
Color: A cop's bronze/orange sunglasses
Nose: Sweet, but sweaty and very smoky. Meaty. Norwegian smoked salmon. Caraway seeds. Red plums. Shaving cream. Smoked cheese. Beach parties with fires, cigarettes and other smokables, wet bathing suits, and sexy salty skin. And I could go on... this thing just doesnt stop giving!
Body: Big Impact.
Palate: Somehow enters the mouth softly, amazing at the strength! The taste is hot and bothered, but soft. Powerful yet not pushy. Immense peat fires. Cocoa and weak instant coffee.
Finish: Long sweet malty finish on a bed of burning peat
