Note di degustazione
Ultra-aging from Islay’s venerable maker of unpeated whiskies. Eucalyptus, baked apples, applesauce, fragrant oak, potpourri, sherried oak, candy shop, and strawberry hard candy envelop the nose. A soft palate offers gener- ous flavors of warm dark chocolate, lemon sorbet, and soapiness. The structure is light, but the depth of flavors more than compen- sates. The finish is long and loaded with chocolate. It’s remarkably light, but offers plenty of complex, well-integrated flavors. (Release date: 10/24

Here's an Islay distillery which has never quite had the investment it deserves. Hopefully this limited release is the start of an addressing of that situation. It has a classic nose with ginger (crystallized) to the fore alongside toasted almond and the balsamic note that you sometimes get with extra-mature whiskies, manifested here as mulberry vinegar. The mouth has coconut, some grip, and — though it fades a little speedily — retained fire. Take with water on the side. £1,999
