Torabhaig Allt Gleann The Legacy Series 2nd Edition
Single Malt — Island, Scotland
Reviewed December 1, 2023Nose is standard peat smoke for this style of dram. Theres a little spirit burn suggesting a younger spirit Plenty flavour on the palate with smoked meats being one of the more prominent tastes I find the finish short and underwhelming again pointing at a younger spirit being masked by a highish ppm -

Reviewed June 2, 2023Nose: pear drops giving way to light tropicals Palate is sweet giving way to the benromach peat Finaih is smokey and medium long. Makes a change from rhe Ben 10 as a lighter drink. -
Ill not lie, this one of my favourite drams and i enjoy the 12 18 and 21 also. Nose is all ablut rhose sweet maraschino cherrys but as rhe drink develops innthe gkass their is actually a small hint of smoke The palate is rich and sweet and should be savoured. Lots of the usual dark dried fruits coming through. Fryit cake tastic The finaih is medium with a little wood ans spixe to round off the sweetness. I just finished my bottle and will be getting more!
