Excellent,
Highly Recommended

Tasting Note:

Distinctively chemical, almost metallic, on the nose, with notes of iodine and coal tar, and subtle gestures toward dried currant and fig. The palate displays softer, mellower peat-derived aromas intermeshed with dried ginger, Christmas cake, and raisin bran.
