87 / 100
The finish is the clearest point of distinction here: it is described as long-lasting, with smoke, salt and a faint sweetness carrying through. That gives the whisky a gently contrasting character, rather than making the smoke the only focus. The nose pairs faint smoke with vanilla and cream, while the palate is described as smooth, salty and faintly sweet. It sounds like a measured Islay style, with enough persistence to hold interest without the notes suggesting an especially forceful profile.
