Appearance: The color on this Islay single malt is a beautiful burnt umber. The legs are thin and extra viscous.
Nose: The nose is beautiful! It's overall smokey and fruity with further notes of graham crackers, rubber band aids, dead leaves, and grapes.
Taste: The palate is delicious with notes of orange and lime citrus, cinnamon and burnt sugar, some medicinal tang like the first injection of saline, burnt marshmallow, and with a couple drops of water, chocolate fudge!
Finish: The finish is medium long, and there's a brown sugar and burnt marshmallow aftertaste. Yum.
Thoughts: Oh man, this was so good! I am a big fan of this scotch and highly recommend it! It's a great introductory Islay with some of the notes that mark its aggression without scaring you away. I would definitely buy this again and try others in its family too. Bunny, thank you much! Sláinte!
