As someone who enjoys peated Scotch, I found this muted the smokiness too much for my liking. I'll be sticking to a regular Rob Roy.

Not a big fan of peaty whisky, used Johnnie Walker Black. This was a perfect after dinner drink. Had the cocktail while watching a murder mystery set in a British country manor house .

If you are unsure about Islay Whisky try this. Smokey/medicinal but with sweetness. Bob’s Abbotts Bitters brings it all together.
