Nose

Sweet peat and dried dates add untold riches to the clean malt and oak. High quality stuff.

Palate

The oak arrives to confront the peat. Result is a complex, spicy battle. Huge intensity with molassed depth countered by seaweedy, briny dryness.

Finish

Remains massive and long with countless layers of peaty iodine and oak ramming the tastebuds.

Comment

If you love Islay whisky, especially the south-east coast variety, this is an absolute must.
