Poit Dhubh (pronounced Potch Ghoo) is the Gaelic term for an illicit still, traditionally renowned for producing the finest whiskies. This 8 year old blended malt whisky is medium sweet and rich, with a good aromatic backbone of peatiness. It is unchillfiltered, imparting a softness to the spirit and a fullness to the flavour. It may appear hazy if chilled. The Gaelic Whiskies, Pràban na Linne Ltd, an Independent Hebridean company based on the Isle of Skye, produces it.

There is a pleasing balance here between the subdued, earthy peat and the richer dried-fruit and nutty notes. On the palate, soft honey and caramel meet polite spice, fruit and a hint of maritime salinity, keeping the character rounded rather than forceful. The smoky, slightly perfumed finish gives it a clear peated identity, while the restrained nose makes the style seem approachable. A thoughtful choice for someone open to a gentle meeting of sweetness and peat.
