CHARRED STICKS IN A HONEY POT

This 9 year old from Islay was matured in a refill barrel and is 61.1%

Flavour profile:  Lightly peated

Outturn:  224 bottles

Panel's tasting note:  "A mineralic edge of crushed flint combined with salty sea breeze and freshly sanded oak with its vanilla laced sweetness being reminiscent of pink wafer biscuits. A delicate smoke shrouded the glass like charred bonfire embers but with a sweet coating of runny honey. With water a light fruitiness evolved with freshly juiced blood oranges and tangy gooseberry tart beside a rock pool. The palate carried a delightfully nutty character with salted pistachio nuts wrapped in a creamy blanket of thick milk shake and cranachan. Blackcurrant jam and sultanas followed before a lasting finish of sea salt on lemon skin."
