Comments: 

I like the Elements series, they’re always quirky and interesting. This one is quite a classic Lagavulin though, lots of driftwood smoke, salt and seaweedy umami. But it’s also quite sweet, with a strong note of citrus fighting with the peat and smoke. I really enjoyed this dram. 

Verdict:

I like this a lot.
