Whisky Review: Isle Of Skye 25-Year-Old landed on my desk, carrying a $206.99. The nose offers lush and fragrant earthy notes of Autumn leaves, along with warm baking spi price tag. Here is what I found.
Nose
The nose offers lush and fragrant earthy notes of Autumn leaves, along with warm baking spices, brown sugar, orchard fruits, toasted walnuts, burnt orange citrus, and hints of buttery toffee.
Palate
Alluring complexity and well rounded flavor notes such as hazelnuts, warm spices, blood orange zest, dark wood polish, gentle smoke, a touch of sea salt, and a spot of leather.
Finish
Like late Autumn in a glass, this robust expression offers a rich complexity of luscious character notes that accentuate each other quite nicely. It has a silky smooth oiliness that lingers in a deep long finish. Delicious and decadent, this blend would be ideal for enjoying in front of the fireplace during the colder months.
The Bottom Line
Whisky Review: Isle Of Skye 25-Year-Old is outstanding — one of those bottles that reminds you why you fell in love with whiskey in the first place. If you see it at $206.99.
