Lady of the Glen Secret Islay 14
Country: Scotland
Region: Islay
Type: Single Malt
Bottler: Hannah Whisky Merchants
ABV: 56.2%
Score: 89 Points
This whisky comes from an undisclosed Islay distillery, and was matured in an ex-Oloroso Sherry butt. The nose has a light smokiness along with heather, a hint of smoked salmon, butterscotch, and caramel notes. The taste is peppery and pungent with cinnamon and black peppercorns balanced by briny driftwood smoke. The spicy notes fade slowly, leaving behind smoke and hints of heather and butterscotch for a bold, smoky finish. (July, 2017)
