Overall
Score
7.8
Nose
Firm and ozone fresh. Walking by the sea after a gale. Wet pebbles, and very sweet soft fruits. Smoke is there, but in the background.
Palate
Lightly oily with a sweet spot that manages to hold its own against wet dulse, a little creosote, crab shells, and (even with water) a wasabi like heat.
Finish
Medicinal.
Comment
Another evolution in the Port Ellen saga. Less austere but also less overtly\rsmoky. Fascinating.
