Gold at the International Spirits Competition in 2005, 2008 & 2013. Master at Scotch Whisky Masters in 2008 and Gold in 2010 and 2013. Finally Best Island (non-Islay) Vintage Single Malt Whisky at the Word Whiskies Awards in 2007 and Best Island Single Malt again in 2013.
Deep cocoa, vanilla and lingering, earthy peat. Very engaging; great sweet-dry balance, led by sweetness.
Remarkable; the stuff of legend. Very well focused. Wonderful grapey sultana sweetness. Clean, tempting.
Magnificent; crisp peat softens to enormous richness, then wafts around sweet, roasted malt, leaving a heathland dryness. Wood controls the pepper; luscious, slightly oily sweetness; ripe, juicy fruit.
