Review #319 Whiskey Tour of the World 2025 #19 Glass: Glencairn, rested 15 minutes. Color: Very pale amber. Nose: Smoke, apple, pear, plum. Palate: Smoke and brine with a bit of rruit and oak. Finish: Medium length with medium heat. The briny note lingers. Splash: No new flavors are revealed. Overall: 7/10 - This isn’t an Islay but it drinks like one. The nose doesn’t have as much smoke and salt as the palate or finish, so they come as a surprise. The briny note lasts and lasts, even after the finish has fallen away.
