I don't drink this whisky often enough because I've only ever seen this one bottle in the wild, but boy do I enjoy it. Almost half gone now. Clear, orange-tinted gold (no coloring added). Energetic nose of gentle smoky peat, buttered pancakes, a touch of caramel, cardamom, and pears canned in syrup. This sweetness continues on the palate, with a weighty, glycerin mouthfeel and noticeable, but pleasant, heat. Finishes where it started, with long, lingering smoky peat. Full-throttle out of the gate and doesn't take its foot off the gas. The syrupy pears and gentle smoky peat suggests Oban Little Bay on steroids. Alternatively, if Oban Little Bay and Ardbeg Uigeidial had a love child, this is it. Aged in 70% ex-bourbon casks and 30% ex-sherry casks: perhaps the former is responsible for the touch of caramel on the nose. Wonderful. 46% ABV. 4.5 on the Distiller scale. N.B. All spirits tasted neat in a Glencairn glass.
