Nose
Much more powerful and full of youth at first nosing, almost like if it would be 15 years younger. Rawer, rougher, starting mostly on huge farmy notes (wet hay, cow stable, wet dog), eucalyptus, wax, almonds, old books, wet cardboard, smoked tea, apple skin, walnuts. Gets even wilder after a moment (hare's belly, civet, pheasant). Hints of mint. Peatier than both the Talisker and the Lagavulin.
Palate
Rich, invading, thick, fat and almost oily, much more compact and 'direct'. Truckloads of peat, apple skin, marzipan and liquorice, with a little vanilla in the background and also lots of quince jelly, strong smoked tea and spices (pepper, nutmeg, dried cardamom). Hints of horseradish and mustard.
Finish
Very long finish, with again a little salt and quite some lemon skin, smoked tea and, of course, peat.
