Nose
Slightly buttery malt and a strange (non-peaty) smokiness like heavily roasted nuts.

This burnt/roasted quality hits you immediately, then comes the soft sweet buttery/oily centre, then a slight bitterness.
Finish
Soft and long.
Comment
It doesn't quite hang together, but hits the mouth in three totally separate sections. I can understand the underlying idea, it just hasn't been pulled off.
