Tasting Notes

The Scalasaig Island Hopper is a captivating blended malt whisky that transports you on a journey across Scotland's coastal islands. With a vibrant nose that conjures up visions of sun-drenched rockpools and the comforting embrace of toasted oak, it tantalizes the senses right from the start. The palate is a harmonious blend of briny coastal notes, a hint of flint, and succulent rum-soaked fruits, all balanced by the delicate floral undertones of barley. As the flavors linger, the finish unveils layers of vanilla pods, creamy milk chocolate, and a peppery malt kick, leaving a lasting impression on the taste buds. Crafted by marrying peated whiskies from the likes of Orkney and Islay in first-fill Spanish sherry casks, The Scalasaig Island Hopper is a true celebration of Scotland's whisky-making heritage, offering a post-dinner indulgence that transports you to the rugged shores and windswept islands with every sip.
