Members' comments "A well balanced, full, sweetish flavour, but alcohol detracts from it. The lips burn too much". "Mostly alcohol with little malt". "Plenty of alcohol and a lot of malt on a big swallow". "Strong peat and alcohol. Interesting, but not well balanced". "The alcohol and malt are good and the whisky shows a sweet fruitiness. The alcohol is strong right through", "There is a crescendo of alcohol all through". "The alcohol is dominant on the nose, but there is no peat anywhere. The alcohol takes over with aftertaste and sharpness".
