Description

The oldest operational distillery on the isle of Islay, built in 1779. Today it is part of the Suntory Group, having been acquired by the Japanese company in 1994. This 18 year old is matured in hand-selected American oak ex-Bourbon casks and European oak Oloroso sherry casks, giving it a complex and exquisitely layered persona. It is a masterful combination of gentle peat smoke with tropical fruits, offering a perfectly balanced malt.
