Online tasting note for reference:

Nose:
Starts extremely ‘Ardbeg’, right on soot and coal smoke mixed with sea air and soaked grains, with only hints of vulcanized rubber and antiseptic. Also a little fresh butter and sweet apple (golden) that mellow it down just a little. Fresh apple juice.

Mouth:
Green bitterness (green tea, chlorophyll gum), capsicum, cumin, cardamom, strong liquorice, Turkish coffee, herbs liqueur. There’s also a faint sweetness (honeydew) that prevents it from getting maybe a tad bitter and acrid. 

Finish:
Long, with more coastal notes, such as oysters. Big peat at the retro-olfaction.
