The Black Bottle largely abandoned its 'Heart of Islay' a few years back, when they altered the blend for greater mainstream appeal. The ongoing bitterness of many peat-heads might blind one to the fact that this is still a decent, inexpensive blend. Toffee, floral honey, tropical fruits, with the barest whiff of old cigar at the end. Kinda like Highland Park Lite. It may not be the smouldering Islay treat it once was, but it's still a pretty good value.
