Overall
Score
8.0
Nose
Immediately smoky. Fish boxes and brine. Higher alcohol increases the feeling of rigidity, but it needs water to soften things.
Palate
Oily phenols hit home. Quite tarry. Without water its rather dusty and dry, with it though there's caramelised scallops.
Finish
Long, a little metallic.
Comment
A big playfight on Port Ellen beach after closing time.
