Light peat on the nose, but overpowered by a cherry-sweet medicinal scent with a honeyed base to it. Reminds me of the smell of a sweetsmoke fire in the distance on a cold beach on a grey day. And tobacco - cigar tobacco. And banana! Marvellous!

Weirdly enjoyable to have that much peat married to such light body and citrus. I'd almost call it refreshing. I like it more than other Kilchoman I've had.
