Country: Scotland
Region: Islay
Type: Single Malt
Bottler: Distiller
ABV: 50%
Score: 91 Points
This is a rarity, with barley grown on the distillery’s farm, malted at the distillery, and bottled on site as well. The nose has a good peatiness with excellent phenols, heather and gorse notes, and hints of dried grass and honey. The taste is a good blend of peat and wood smoke, along with a hint of citrus to balance allspice, honey, and black tea notes for an excellent mouthfeel. The finish is smoky and lingering.
