Nose

The lightest, creamiest of all Islay's noses, but contains a surprising richness. There is also a fruit salad sweetness with diced apples.

Palate

Fresh, intense malt which clings to the roof of the mouth alongside some slightly bitter oaky notes.

Finish

Pleasant, medium length but rather one dimensional. A chalky, vanilla finale.

Comment

This dram has changed in recent years; less silky and more malt sharp but very easy going.
