Isle Of Harris 'Distilled Tranquillity' 6 Year Old, Refill Hogshead Cask, Cask #163.1, 2018, The Scotch Malt Whisky Society, 58.1%

This sounds rich and firmly smoky, with the walnut cake and sweet fruit giving the savory coffee and brisket a softer edge. The camphor and hot-plastic finish feels like a bolder turn, but it gives the character some depth.
