Region: Islay
District: South Shore
"Medium amber in color; the peaty nose bears hints of licorice and cigar smoke. The slick, oily body holds a peaty palate that's more subdued and refined than this malt's 10-year-old brother and brings with it an almost Sherry-like sweetness (although no Sherry butts are used to mature this malt) and a faint nuttiness in the backdrop. The finish is dry, peaty, sophisticated, and very long." 88 Points - Wine Enthusiast
Tasting Notes: Nose: Well balanced, peaty-smoky. Taste: Full of character, big Islay peaty flavour with a delightful touch of sweetness. Betrays its proximity to the sea. Comments: An excellent after dinner malt from a beautifully situated distillery. Very popular. - Wallace Milroy's Malt Whisky Almanac |
