Islay Storm

泥煤味明顯、風味穩重。

Good amount of smoke, a bit of medicine and ash. There are a few baking spices to find, but little else. It could scratch the Islay itch if you find it on sale, but it's not realy very good for me.

Smokey but smooth. Gold daily drinker

(Vita Dulcis Advent Calendar 16/24) A refined light nose that is very much Islay with its typical peat notes. It is very shy though and you definitely notice the only 40% ABV. But it is likable for sure. I read that it is at least to some part Finlaggan which I already had in this advent calendar and actually liked. Next the peat there is pure white fruit / grape sugar as well as bright clear apple juice. The peat is really its only convincing feature. Palate is sweet and cold ash from a burned down fireplace. The finish though is really surprisingly bad. At first it is ok But then it quickly becomes very unpleasant. Not sure if that is from the batch they used for the samples or whatever but the finish is like burned plastic and glue. Actually chemical like snail pesticides. Can’t finish the glass. Nose: 3 Palate: 2.5 Finish: 1

Easy drinking, peated, smoky
