Single Malt — Islands, Scotland

Color: The color for this Scottish island delight is a very light honey gold. The legs are thin but viscous.
Nose: The nose hit my nasal cavity with a light alcohol burn, but after acclimating, notes of green grass and hay bales stand way out in front. Honey, baking spices, soaked wood, and honeycrisp apple notes fill out the rest of the amazing bouquet.
Taste: The palate contains notes of sea salt, fruits, honey, oaky tannins, malt and dark chocolate. It’s really quite delicious though maybe a little complex.
Finish: The finish is medium long in length. The aftertaste is salty, bitter, and almost creamy like a stout beer
Thoughts: This scotch was so delicious, vibrant, and full! It had an uncanny resemblance to a stout beer in my opinion, and as that is one of my favorite styles of beer, I really enjoyed it! I think a splash of water brings it down to the perfect level according to my preferences. I would definitely buy this one again, and highly recommend it! Sláinte!
