Nose
Coal, ash, industrial smoke, briny, a bit zesty but not too apparent, intense nose, definitely smells like a 60% whisky
Body
Quite sweet for a Port Ellen, but gets spicier over time, zesty, again with the industrial smoke, quite earthy and coal; with water it gets a bit sweeter but still quite spicy and even a bit oaky towards the end
Finish
Long, salty finish, liquorice, slightly bitter, tar & ashy
