Very different beast to Port Charlotte, it's cask strength. First arrival completely neat is probably one of the most smokey whisky's I've ever had, even more so than all of the octomore's I've tried. The only way to describe it is like a smoke bomb exploding in your mouth. Half a teaspoon of water mellows it out and brings out a lot of spice, and the more water you add the it becomes sweeter and a lot of fruit flavour come out.
Really excellent, popped some inert gas in it so I can share it with friends (one day if we're ever allowed out again) as anyone who likes peat is going to love it.

Ooh nice. Peat-wise how does it compare to the port Charlotte make?
Love what I’ve tried from bruichladdich.
