Country: Scotland

Region: Islay

Type: Single Malt

Bottler: Distiller

ABV: 46.3%

Score: 93 Points

This Islay classic is on the low end of the peat spectrum, and the nose has touches of charred oak, grilled fruits, dark chocolate, and salted caramel. The taste is rich with grilled fruits, salted caramel, dark chocolate, and honey notes. The finish is long and fruity with just the barest hint of smokiness. (July, 2023)
