Nose: the nose is sweet and fresh on vanilla, apples, grapes, lime (including zest) and lots of sea salt. A classic Bowmore if you ask me. The smoke is in the background, making it fresh and accessible. In that sense, it really reminds me of the Small Batch from a few years ago.
Taste: i would not have minded a little bit more body. On the palate too, it is very fruity and sweet, while the peat is a lot more outspoken. It even flirts with tropical notes, which i quite like. Loads of vanilla too. Yes, again, I am reminded of the Small Batch.
Finish: the finish is not very long, but with a lovely smokiness and a touch of mint. Vanilla and citrus remains present throughout.
