Tasting Notes

Nose

s (and flavors) and find the sensation overwhelming, potentially even painful. Regardless of your personal preference, smoky Scotch whiskies are here to stay. The smoke in Scotch is part of a long tradition of using materials available in Scotland to make Scotch. Historically, Scotland had relatively few trees to dry barley with but there was a ton of peat. So, Scotch makers use peat moss to dry barley grain with smoke, giving it a distinctive “smoky” flavor. Given that it takes approximately 30 hours to dry barley, distillers have their own recipes to achieve a desired “peatiness”. Most Scotches that use peat are from the islands of Scotland, most prominently the Isle of Islay (pronounced “eye-la”), and include brands like Laphroaig, Ardbeg, Lagavulin, Caol Ila, and Bowmore, among others.
