The intense peat makes this a more forceful choice than the easygoing style I tend to prefer, but the long smoky finish gives it a clear appeal.
That hogshead influence pairs well with the peat.
The smoke and medicinal Islay character make the style easy to place. Intense peat carries through to a long, smoky finish. That focused character is appealing, though clearly aimed at people who want peat up front.
Intense peat and a long smoky finish may be a lot.
