Actually very drinkable and enjoyable-
Rather reluctant peat and smoke - reminds me on Caol Ila
-
Fine peat and smoke, subtle sweetness, little lemony
-
Medium long, warm, balanced

Rarely had such a vanilla bomb, as expected heavy smoke. A great combo that is fun.-
What a clear intense smoke, sweet, slightly sour yellow fruit, vanilla, a classic smoker from ex-bourbon barrels, alcohol well integrated, light spice, a breeze of cinnamon, with time, the smoke is greasy, slightly salty, somehow smoldering, one has the feeling that the glass would burn
-
full-bodied, intense, the same picture as in the nose, totally sweet, clear vanilla, fierce smoke, yellow fruit, some cinnamon, which is then even stronger, even here, the high alcohol content is not due to unpleasant sharpness
-
behind hack, the smoke lays dry over everything, vanilla bomb, lingers long and warm

Young, wild, impetuous, full on the 10 - unfortunately little draft-
Heavy smoke with both campfire and light medical touch, acetic acid, cucumber, unripe gooseberry - in some way "unfinished" in the nose
-
the medicinal smoke component topples the campfire, again the "green" notes of unripe fruits, green apples and gooseberries - actually the nose is confirmed in the mouth - metallic, but also very sweet
-
lang, rauchig, scharf, süß

Compared to the very first batch, that sweet Bowmore touch from the nose is gone. Apart from that, they managed to keep the profile very alike. Some of the whisky in there was perhaps a bit too young, but it's still very enjoyable. 85/86.-
Peat, apple, vanilla, pastry, fig, peach and minerals.
-
Peat, apple, pepper, nutmeg and something schnapps-y.
-
Peat, white bread, apple and pepper.

Marko_I did not rate this whisky
Beautiful, young CS smoker, tasty and strong, but not better or worse than this or that single cask - so the high art of dazzling does not scream against me now, but that with all Islay malts and name and design are beautiful Gags, there are 55 € OK, especially as a gift, for me, but I would rather take a Classic of Islay for 45 €.-
fresh, very spicy, salt, greens, caper water (that would probably be the peat component, so smoky I do not think that), with a little water and time comes to light, creamy sweetness - the usual: vanilla, white chocolate, cereals / cornflakes ... after a while I have a really nice cool fresh-green note with a deep breath, like fresh sliced cucumber with lime and some menthol
-
Fat on your mouth: ashes, tar, black pepper, a whole lot of milk chocolate, coconut flakes
-
long and smoky, the milk chocolate and the pepper remain, even the greens from the nose sound bitter again
