Iodized nose, tide, spray and a good full-bodied peat. Sherry is tasty, thick, leather and red berries. The palate is light, peat, grapes, prune, the finish is smoky, quite controlled.

Wonderfully rounded and heartwarming everyday drop! Has that something of the animalistic, metallic sound of the first Kilchomans, which is no longer dominant, but gives the little water a good character.

Nose

83 83

Torfaschige odors spread already when opening the bottle and pouring into the dram. As soon as the nose approaches the glass, the initial scent is enveloped by crystallized honey, citric elements and caramel. Masterfully composed: peaty, sweet, sour and a bit sharp (peppery).

Taste

83 83

Goldiciously oily, the potion flows into the throat and unfolds there its pleasant effect.

Finish

83 83

When swallowing, the main components (peat, honey, spices, but also soft pepper) separate a bit, but find balanced again and remain medium in length.

Nose

Meaty and fruity

Taste

Peat and sherry combine to a BBQ smoke reminiscent flavour.

Finish

Dry, vegetal peat, and some of the sherry meatiness sticks around.

Young, unpretentious, but unexpectedly dense for its low fortress, cohesive, spicy.

Nose

Open, smoke-peat with a tangible admixture of juicy fresh rubber, fire charcoal, burnt branches, in style close to Ardbeg.

Taste

Dense, sufficiently saturated for such a young Molta, sweet, with a soft peppery wave, cream, condensed milk, ash, activated charcoal.

Finish

Sweet-smoky, coals, ash, condensed milk.

Very successful this sherry finish!

Nose

The nose is peaty, dry peat, mineral, dry fruits and exotic.

Taste

On the palate it is round, peat fades before the grapes and spices.

Finish

The finish is medium-long on smoke and fruit.
