Tasting notes from Jim McEwan:
Body - Assertive with understated power
Aromas & Flavours - Opens on a super fresh salty sea breeze and on the slipstream the peat smoke lingers like storm clouds on the Atlantic Horizon. It’s pure West Coast DNA shines like a beacon on a stormy night. At once graceful and strong this blockbuster delivers on all fronts. I recommend just a wee drop of water to release the spicy overture of bourbon, the first occupant of the cask.
On the palate the maltiness, nuttiness, pepper & lemon honey, sea spray, burning Heather and sheltering quietly are beautiful coastal overtures of sea pinks, Riverbank Marigolds, wild mint & Islay grown barley sweet & smoky. For this young Warrior the time is right. No restraints, no looking back at 7 years in solidarity, the Islay spirit drives it to run free embracing all who have the pleasure of its company.
When will we see the likes again!
