Over the years I've been working my way through drams in roughly the order I bought them with the exception of the 20 or so super drams which I bundled up over the last year and a half and am now working my through with slight Segways or palate cleansers. After the tasting of that lot it will be FIFO (first in first out) with rare exceptions I expedite as one of the Segways as I want to know whether it is worth the rare 2019 instance of a bottle purchase before they sell out. This was one such dram. Beautiful peat, married with sauternes sweetness, no flaws and a lovely warming glowing aftertaste. It is a very nice dram definitely a 4.25. It doesn't however cross into the rare must buy 2019 category for me. I miss the full aging Kilchoman experience. For me whilst excellently executed I'm more of a smack me in the face with what you've got Mr. Cask and this dram isn't that. That was the red wine cask. Nice dram but no cigar / bottle this time round (although I will gratefully accept donations :-)). I will be saving my bottle pennies for the fabled Solstice given the Albariza is most likely sadly out of my reach. Update 11/19. Ok I blew my pennies on the Solstice and then couldn't stop...feast or famine it seems like for me. After buying a bottle of this, the STR and Benromach Peat Sherry 2010 CS I'm officially taking a break.
