Nose: smooth and woody - yum!
Palate: peaty and magical aka dangerous!!!
Finish: wow... perfect!
Balance: divinely wonderful!
Nose: smell! Floral peat! Sweet sourness.
Palate: Taste! Yummy buttery burnt toast.
Finish: Unagi!
Balance: THIS HAUNTS ME
Nose: butterscotch!!! faint caramel, cocoa, pebbles
Palate: partial white pepper, slightly salty
Finish: tangy finish
Balance: two-dimensional
Palate: sweet and spicy
Finish: smooth!
Nose: peaty, burny, with a touch of sweet. I can't stop... seriously
Palate: Kaboom peat. Eventual lovely other stuff. Tad oily
Finish: It's a slow finish, but worth it. After working through the peat it's sweet
Balance: Not entirely balanced; weighs heavily towards peat. But still lovely
Nose: sweet and peaty
Palate: sweet, syrupy with a firey end
Finish: fire
Balance: shockingly burning, befitting of the namesake
Nose: Very light
Nose: sour straw
Palate: strawberries and peat, my new favorite dessert
Finish: that persistent ring of the bell - very nice
Balance: this is remarkable, but 113-117 whiskies makes a solid base. Peat overtones, good taste undertones.
Nose: peaty
Palate: nice solid peaty hit that fizzles out to thin metallic notes around the edges. Layers very slowly.
Finish: weak in the back with a center-of-chest pocket of heat. Layers but doesn't fill out.
Balance: this one is all about the front.
Nose: Speyside and Islay win out in the nose, soft, smokey and sweet
Palate: The peat won this battle but second and third are close behind with melty caramel sweetness
Finish: It definitely develops but the wrong way...
Balance: Love all the notes. My tongue travels the regions with every taste
Nose: great nose for a blend
Balance: lots of peat but superb balance
Nose: nice, (?), delicate
Palate: creamy, a bit flat at times but wholesome
Finish: fruit, 9?)
Balance: extremely well-balanced, fades wonderfully
Nose: smokey and peaty
Palate: smokey and peaty
Finish: strong burn that lasts
Balance: lots of flavors, lots of peat
