A gorgeous dram IMHO from an exceptional cask. I very much like the blunt Ballechin peat (as opposed to the sharp Islay peat). The smoke is beautifully integrated with the rich fruity Edradour spirit and an active refill bourbon cask. The result is a wonderful dram that is rich and complex, smooth and bright. I find the chocolate, lime, and honey notes salient and beautifully complementary. The tasting notes mention vegetal funkiness, but I don't experience this. The dram seems much cleaner and more elegant than these particular notes imply. Perhaps this is what I'm experiencing as blunt peat, which again is well integrated with everything else. One of my all time favourite peated whiskies.
