- Description
- Elements of Islay's Sherry Cask expression blends malts from Islay's north and south coasts, all matured in first-fill and refill sherry casks, and bottled at a robust 54.5% ABV. Sherry maturation imparts dried fruit richness, citrus zest, and cocoa depth that interweave with Islay's characteristic sweet, spicy smoke, creating a full-bodied dram where wine influence and peat remain in elegant balance. This suits drinkers seeking sherry-aged Scotch with genuine peated character and complexity.
