84 / 100
The unpeated designation is a useful style cue, but it does not guarantee a smoke-free sensory impression. The documented notes put the emphasis elsewhere: caramel and roasted oak meet baking spices, with apple and apricot bringing a fruitier edge. That clear mix of oak, spice and sweetness sounds appealing to me, though anyone choosing mainly by smoke level should not treat the label as a tasting verdict.
