Colour: amber. Nose: sherry plus peat is a hit or miss combination. roasted nuts, bitter chocolate, gunpowder , old coal stove, and just ‘a gun’. With water: whacky, in a great way. Swiss cheese, Havana cigars, soot. Mouth (neat): It hasn’t lost its sharpish peatiness, but it’s gained this leathery chocolatiness from the sherry. It’s also got citrus and salt. With water: perfect. Smoky hot chocolate and orange liqueur. Finish: medium to long, with added notes of benzine and burnt cigars. Herbal liqueur in the aftertaste.
