Tasting Notes
"This is a fairly straight-forward scotch; softly peated and full of fire-roasted nuts, particularly hazelnuts. Light pepper, subtle floral perfumes, and touches of dried chamomile are found on this balanced and forth-coming malt. The finish is round and soft. Overall in a blind-test it might be tough to peg this malt as an Islay as it seems to be more along the lines of a quietly restrained Western-Lowland. "
