--Sample, thanks fonefan! -- Black, small beige head. Huge aroma of peaty Iskay whisky. Very sweet with full body and rounded mouthfeel. Lots of cane sugar, some syrup, lots of peaty Islay whisky. Peppery warming finish. So much good in here, but also so much sugar. Achingly, insanely sweet, but all that Laphroig make me forgive a lot of that.
