Tasting Notes:
The nose is bright, lively and instantly peaty with a classy, briny Islay trademark. The complexity is augmented by soft yellow fruit and green olives.
Fresh and lively to the palate, this malt builds well with great structure to deliver Islay peat-smoke and balanced banana and melon. Lingering and smoky to the end, deliciously well composed

Distilled at Caol Ila Distillery, and bottled by Berry Bros & Rudd.
