Islay Vatted Malt Whisky


Bottled in Scotland - August 2006 at Cask Strength

With all the usual characteristics one would expect from an Islay - dry, smokey and peaty, with a touch of spice - this is a wonderful complex whisky that will not disappoint.
An Islay lover's dream!


TASTING NOTES:
Wonderful polished zinc colour, slightly green around the edges. The first impression is rich and unctuous.
Iodine and warm charcoal embers come through on the nose. There is a refreshing prickle to the aroma similar to that of a forest early on a spring morning and at the same time a rich aroma similar to the smell of new leather. With water the nose becomes slightly musty and the strength of the phenolic aromas disperses to give way to an interesting Indian spice. Fantastic depth.
The immediate mouth feel is awesome. Mouth watering to begin with, then instant dryness, only to see the return of the mouth watering richness. Water lifts the palate of this malt exceptionally well. A salty foretaste and woody notes quickly give way to a curious sweet, citrus tang. Wonderful peaty fumes float around the mouth.
The finish is delightful and long with a delicious bitter peppermint aftertaste.
