“Fresh apples, sweet honey and soft oak balanced by bitter orange pith, spice, fresh crisp apples and citrus. Smoky fine oak finish. Naturally sweet; divine”.
– The IWSC“This release from the much-lauded GreatDrams — an independent bottler in the UK — is another winner. The Islay whisky in this case was aged in ex-bourbon casks before making its way to the GreatDrams blendery where it was bottled as-is. GreatDrams is always killing it in the bottling space. Their releases are dialed-in and killer barrel picks from across the U.K. that never fails to wow. This is worth tracking down”.

The island itself has an almost-magical aura about it that draws you back time and time again, this Islay distillery, located on the coast, looks over the gorgeous clear blue water.
In whisky, the ‘peaty’ note is more potent at a younger age as the spirit’s influence is greater than the wood of the cask’s influence, hence why we bottled this one at 7 years old – for the peat power!
