Tasting Notes

"This whisky is a bit two-faced with dominant dessert aromas of vanilla custard and caramel, but also follows through with rich ash, moderate peat and a brininess that lends to memories of a fisherman's well-seasoned leather logbook. The same follows suit on the palate, but again, a tale of two malts. The first tale speaks of creamy and rich vanilla caramel, and delicate fruits, and the second tale finds you taking a walk on the beach on a cold day surrounding yourself with medicinal and vegetal notes from the sea breeze intertwined with smoke from the hearths of the nearby village. There is a lingering salty smokiness that provides a satisfying finish for the Islay scotch lovers that are looking to discover something new, whilst enjoying something also quite familiar. "
