Member Ratings and Notes
Adam
 
Sweet, smoky, and rather smooth for 55.5%.  The syrup-like aspects -- in both feel and taste -- make this one a craveable winner for me.  The finish lingers nice and long, with the smoke staying pretty darn prominent through the whole thing.  It's a more complex/refined, non-brushfire type of smoke that I like, too.

N: Caramelized peat, sweet and nectary.
P: Very thick and syrupy, if it weren't so delicious this might be a detraction.  Why did they close this distillery!! 
F: Stays with you for minutes.
