Whisky review : Big Peat, blended malt, bottled @46%

Whisky review : Big Peat, blended malt, bottled @46%

-Made of Coal Ila, Bowmore, Ardbeg and Port Ellen...(probably not much of it tough). 
-Funny label (complete marketing Fail for N.A markets). 

Colour: light gold, pale straw, oily with long legs.

Nose: Incredible depth of peat and ashes, reminds me of PC8. Very well settled, not overpowering and so inviting. Hints of metal and more peat and sweet notes. Brilliant.

Mouth: Gentle and soft ashes and peat, very PC yet different, not as sweet. Chewy peat..so tender. So smooth it's almost flawless. So good.

Finish: lingering sweet peat and light ashes...

A for the taste. Excellent whisky. Highly recommended.
B+ for the price. Great taste for a reasonable price (77,75$). Yes it's NAS, but I would say some of its components are more than 10 years old for sure, maybe even 15. 
B- for presentation. So so for the label, it's funny but not appealing. Yet, I would suggest to take a closer look at it..it deserves attention.
