looseleaframbler22 SeptA bold, smoky character with a lovely dark-fruit edge.
Dark fruits and citrus give the peat smoke some contrast, while sweet fruits sit alongside chocolate and spice. The long smoky finish sounds like the dominant note, so this seems best suited to someone who wants fruit with substantial peat rather than fruit alone.
