Reviewed January 22, 2017 (edited July 21, 2017)This is a masterclass on how to develop an Islay whisky with finesse and balance. It's a soft heather aroma on the nose (like a young Balvenie), with a touch of brine and salinity. Then the palette continue with more brine, salinity, citrus and caramel. No where close to the signature in your face Laphroaig, which isn't a bad thing...just shows how well it balances the softer floral flavors with a stronger peat backbone. Thanks to ModernDrinking for a generous sample!
