Smoky aroma, smoky taste. Exactly what it says in the bottle. Not my thing though. Deep brown in colour with just the over powering smoke taste.

not everyone will like it since it's an aquired taste. If you enjoy Islay whiskey it's probably for you, this one is not for me 👎

Smells like German sausage! Soft and rich in taste with notes of caramel and smoke

Tastes and smells like smoked bacon. I'm not a fan of either.
