Cask #2958. Very light and sour, with a strong element of sea salt. Smells strongly of leather, but not quite peat, with a very light, short, refreshing finish. This reminds me of Moroccan preserved lemons, where the lemon is steeped in salt for weeks, then served up as a condiment with sprigs of mint. Very nice indeed.

Verdict:

I like this a lot.
