Review by Bruichladdich

Colour

Tea rose/ Wild raspberry.

Nose

An exhilarating fresh and vibrant bouquet, opening with soft red grapes, redcurrant jelly, pomegranate and red apple all encased in an envelope of syrup, sweet malted barley and brown sugar vanilla.

Palate

It jumps out of the glass anxious to please. The wine flavours wait patiently while the malt and oak display their charms. Then they emerge – red cherry, strawberry and spiciness. Really creamy yet retaining a coastal crispness.

Finish

A malt on a mission! Snappy and sweet, zipping along on the crest of a wave migrating from Islay to France but always returning to the homeland.

Conclusion

Light, bright and full of joy! A fresh, vibrant spirit brimming with the unique flavours of the Hebrides.
