Another installment in my gift collection of samples. As the description states, this whisky is sourced from Islay malts to showcase their character. Seeing that this has an ABV approaching 60, I added about 1/2 tsp of water to the 30 mL dram and gave it 15 minutes to open up.
Nose: Iodine, sea spray, smoke, citrus zest
Palate: Honey, smoked ham (very prominent), cigar ash, campfire, and ethanol burn
Finish: medium long and hot with lingering smoked ham.
3.5 stars. Not bad for something I've never heard anything about.
