Summary

This whisky is a testament to the art of peating, offering a bold and intense experience for those who appreciate the depth of smoky flavors. Distilled on the Isle of Islay, it carries the signature maritime influence that the region is renowned for, adding a unique coastal character to its profile. The 10-year aging process allows the spirit to develop a complexity that balances its robust peatiness with subtle nuances of sweetness and oak.

On the nose, this whisky presents a powerful aroma of peat smoke, intertwined with hints of sea spray and earthy undertones. As you take your first sip, the palate is greeted with a rich, smoky flavor that is both intense and layered. The peat is dominant but is complemented by notes of vanilla, oak, and a touch of sweetness that rounds out the experience.

The finish is long and warming, leaving a lingering smokiness that gradually fades to reveal a gentle sweetness and a hint of oak. This whisky is not for the faint-hearted but is a rewarding experience for those who enjoy a heavily peated profile. It is a perfect choice for a contemplative evening, allowing you to savor each complex layer of flavor.
