Pretty heavy, sweet smoke. Roasted meat, some slightly fruity as well: Oranges
-
Not as full and strong as the nose seemed to promise. A little pepper, some peat and sweet smoke, sal ammoniac. A little flat, some roasted meat still far at the background.
-
Still some smoke and ash, still a little flat, a little sweet as well.

Peated smoke, sweet fruits, furniture polish, fresh leafs, dry hay, cake, vanilla and dust notes on nose.
Peated smoke, coal dust, dried fruits notes on palate.
Spices, dust, peated smoke, red apples notes on long finish.Marko_I did not rate this whisky
Tasty, the kind of smoke fits perfectly to the Edradour basic character, ~ € 45 fit.-
strong smoke, rather heavy, sweetish, earth, farm (not maritime or phenolic or grassy-bitter), a touch of mushrooms, smoked bacon & leather, the sweetness goes slightly towards orange marmalade (but he does not get over fruity)
-
Strong, full-bodied, almost greasy, the smoke is ashen, burnt meat, to tart sweetness, bitter chocolate sugar beet syrup, old leather, medium pepper sharpness
-
Long, warm, again properly baked crust of sweet marinated meat, pepper, then camillan

First malty flavors, leather and a smoldering peat smoke. Gradually pepper, coal dust, dark chocolate, chestnut honey, dark beet syrup and a tinctuous Floralität follow.
-
Full, energetic start, a touch of sherry and then again peat smoke, coal dust, leather, smoke malt, walnuts and hot chocolate.
-
Long, roasted chestnuts and peat smoke.

After the nose, I would have expected a grenade and also the 46% are promising, in the finish and taste, he unfortunately falls off a bit. Dr alcohol is barely noticeable-
surprisingly strong phenolic sweet smoke. with time comes only a metholfrische, but is very well involved. eventually floral notes of fresh hay and fruity hints
-
Unfortunately, the taste is a little disappointing after the nose. light and almost watery, even the dominant smoke is barely noticeable. confusing...
-
In the finish, the cold ash-smoke comes back but not as violent as in the nose. Something salty but otherwise flat. rather medium

I thought this was very drinkable at 46% and considering it was 50 ppm it was not overly peaty but a nice creamy peat.
