HAND-ROLLED CUBAN CIGARS

This 18 year old Ileach is 59.2% after maturing in a Refill Barrel.

Profile: "Heavily peated." 

Panel's Tasting Note: "We all agreed that we are visiting a harbour watching the fishing boats unloading their catch which is mostly shellfish like clams, mussels, oysters and scallops. It is early in the morning and aromas of bacon rolls with brown sauce are mingling with the fresh, salty sea breeze. The taste is chewy and juicy like wine gums but at the same time there is the earthiness and smokiness of a peat hearth combined with the spiciness of cinnamon and nutmeg. With water turning fresh and fruity like an apple ginger lemon juice, sweet as a vanilla cupcake and the flavours of sweet tobacco – premium hand- rolled Cuban cigars."

Drinking Tip: "Switch off and let the world go by."
