- Description
- This 14-year-old Islay single malt from an undisclosed source matured in first-fill bourbon barrels, bottled at 45.8% ABV with intriguing origins—rumoured to come from a peated distillery operating under a different name. The extended bourbon maturation builds rich vanilla and orchard fruit character typical of Islay's more restrained offerings.
