Color

Deep gold

Nose

Round aromas of coffee, caramel, vanilla and chocolate quickly followed by hints of seafood, such as oysters, anise, peat and barley

Taste

Rich taste of peat, turf and more, followed by toffee and dark chocolate. Simple but very tasty!

Finish

A long and dry, earthy finish with a spicy touch of eucalyptus and tones of peat

Color

Pale gold

Nose

Fantastic nose. So many levels of smoke/peat. Sweet; burnt grass; turkish delight.

(water) - antiseptic; old medications drawer. I like the nose better without water as it flattens it. Kippers. Cedar wood infused with tobacco (old humidor)

Taste

Ashes; cured ham; lemon zest. Oily texture. Very rich flavour.

(water) - peat, ham; charred wood. With time more of the peat.

Finish

Medium, on smoke and with the water some salt.

Comments

I love it.

Wow, a salute to Islay. Beautiful tarry, peaty and smoky. The salty sea brize comes wonderful in your mouth, with a long spicy finish. If you like Islay and spirit from Ardbeg, Caol Ila, Bowmore and, shockingly, Port Ellen (so they say) you should buy a bottle.
