The cask left a clear imprint on the whisky's texture, but adding water improves things considerably; overall, it is pleasant and entertaining.

Mostly Scotch, a good deal of American, and a growing amount of everything else.

A highly complex, mature whisky with seaweed, tobacco, faded ashy smoke, brine, pepper, old leather and earthy tar notes.
A very clean and direct Raasay with an impressive waxy texture, focused freshness and a nice industrial touch.
Thick and oily, with leafy coastal peat, lemon, bready notes and a saline edge, though its youthful, slightly dirty character makes it challenging.
