Seaweed & Aeons & Digging & Fire & Cask Strength 10 Year Old (Batch 05)
Seaweed & Aeons & Digging & Fire
Tasting Notes
This whisky is a true embodiment of Islay's rugged charm. The nose invites you to a coastal adventure, with bold notes of petrichor (that earthy scent after rain) and the briny air of the sea, complemented by the sweetness of dried fruit and candied ginger. As you take a sip, the palate is densely packed with flavors that transport you to the heart of the island – earthy peat, rich mocha, jammy sultanas, and a hint of peppery spice. The finish is a lingering reminder of Islay's maritime heritage, with seaweed notes lingering on the palate, wafted by hints of warm cinnamon. This cask-strength single malt, with 25% sherry cask finishing, strikes a perfect balance between the island's trademark peatiness and a touch of dried fruit sweetness, making it a true gem for Islay whisky enthusiasts.
