When I hear that a scotch tastes "peaty" I wonder who was the asshole that ate peat in the first place.
"Long and lingering. Plenty of peat and some briny notes"
sounds like stinky pussy to me not a good $100 Scotch
No one eats peat. The "taste" they refer to is that of the smell of peat smoke, which has been cut and burned for fuel for hundreds probably a couple thousand years. The peat in a good Scotch Whiskey comes from the smoke of the burning peat used either to cook the mash or to cure the barrels it ages in.
