Overall
Score
9.0
Nose
Pungent, complex. Smoked eel, coal tar, applewood, smoked cheese, bitumen. Frisky.
Palate
Intensely peaty. Rounded with big kick: marine character, fragrant smoke, touch of black pepper, but balanced by sufficient sweetness.
Finish
Smoke belch.
Comment
Excellent. Lagavulin isn't as peaty as it used to be? Pull the other one.
