Tasting notes from Jim McEwan MBE

Body – It’s a full-on Islay character at its best, matured a stone’s throw from the Atlantic Ocean.

Aromas - It’s a peat lovers spirit. The smoke, the oak and the sweetness of malt extract plus the full-term maturation on the coast of Heaven – Islay - delivers a truly unique aromatic experience that can only come from Islay maturation.

Palate - It’s that true Islay flavour, the charred oak, the smoke from the ancient peat bogs, the sweet spiciness from the bourbon-soaked staves, the Islay matured casks absorbing all the character of a Hebridean Island. The most important factor is that it’s distilled by a team of Islanders who have learned from their forefathers. No computers, no colouring, matured in the finest ex-bourbon barrel and the skills of the team at the distillery and the bottling operators. A true team effort we are privileged to have in a bottle, or better a glass in front of us.
