This young, lightly colored whisky hails from an undisclosed distillery in Scotland. It boasts an intense peatiness, as its bold name suggests, along with a delightful hint of citrusy fresh fruitiness. The packaging is quite attention-grabbing, featuring a fearsome monster and a deliberately scorched label. Bottled at a robust 46% ABV and left un-chillfiltered to retain its full character.
Tasting Note by Oban:
Nose: Soft malts, delicate fruits, and waves of brine.
Palate: Delightfully complex with crushed grapes, orange zest, salt, and smoke.
Finish: Notes of sweetened Jamaican coffee and oak wood.
