| Details | Casks from this Islay distillery are sold to indie bottlers under the name Williamson, but the character of the whisky does more than enough to announce their origin. There are aromas of sooty peat, iodine and baked kippers on the nose, leading to citrus oils with burnt hay and a dusting of milk chocolate powder. |

| Tasting Notes |
Nose This feisty Islay whisky surges from the glass on a gale of sooty peat, turf, iodine, and lanolin oils. Herein lies great complexity, unlocked by a teaspoon or so of water and a little time. Those with patience are rewarded with rich farmyard aromas, smoked hay, damp earth, and kippers. Palate The palate follows this theme, flowing from pure turf smoke to dark orange chocolate and composting fruit. Finish Smoke and spice flow in waves on the long finish. |
