Review
This is a great whisky that we would definitely come back to again and again. A total classic. We really enjoyed the smoke with the marine that was reminiscent of Talisker, but the package was very smooth and slightly sweeter with a luscious mouth feel. This is well up with one of the best whiskies we have enjoyed this year.

Food Pairing
This whisky pairs beautifully with:
Occasion
Enjoying this at the end of a long cold rainy winter night - with some close friends or loved ones, around a open fire enjoy this with some hard cheeses and dash of dark chocolate.
Right for you?
This would make an awesome present for those that love smokey whiskies but haven't strayed far from Islay. Even though it is on the expensive side, it would not disappoint the discerning palate. Not recommended for beginners unless you are exploring peated whiskies.
