The aroma of hay barns in the summer and a hint of the earth come through very pleasantly.  New wood shavings and a hint of peat make for an interesting sweet nose.  There is a natural soapy aroma that creates an exciting complexity and oily notes make this whisky almost Jekyll and Hyde like.  There is a dark toffee feel on the palate and the general feel is rich and drying.  The finish lingers and any sweetness soon disappears to leave a peaty dryness.  Very much an after dinner dram.
