Peat is the predominant flavor, but it’s not overwhelming. If you’ve followed any of my whisky reviews, you know I’m not the biggest fan of peat, but I really loved this one. It’s simple and delicate. It also has a good mouthfeel. If you’re into French whisky or Scotch, I would recommend giving this one a try.
