The nose on this is salty and fruity, with some seaweed, a hint of rubber and a prick of alcohol even at 43% ABV. The taste is rich with toffee, burnt coffee, caramel at first then some more acrid camp fire notes and along with bitter fruit peels and spices. The finish is gentle hum of heat and peppermint along with some smokiness. At 43% ABV it can take a drop of water and still hold up, but it doesn't need it. Overall a delicious expression from one of my favourite distilleries.
