Whisky Review: Elements of Islay Sherry Cask — a Scotch expression worthy of considered evaluation.
Palate
The palate offers light smoke, spice, and savory fruit notes that keep it from being too heavy.
Finish
Very tasty and well-balanced, with a vibrant flavor profile that has a nice sea salt to spice ratio thats rounded out nicely by smooth fruit notes. All of which pleasantly linger in a smoky, medium to long finish. This has an approachable and intriguing depth of character that makes this a unique whisky experience, offering something more than the traditional Islay whisky flavor profile.
