Review:

nose:Wow.I love the nose on young islays and this one is great.The bourbon and sherry influence hits you straight away giving a richness which i wasnt expecting, with it being so young.Theres the unmistakable peat smoke blast which you would expect with islays and also a very alluring fruityness and sweetness.

palate:Delicious.Doesnt stray from the nose in any way which is remarkable,toffee and marzipan sweetness,fruity freshness,sherry and bourboun richness,smoky,oily medicenal notes.Its like having a cocktail of young,laphroaig,arbeg,caol ila,and laga 16.

Finish:Long,fresh,peaty,rich.

comment:absolutley love this,easily my favourite young islay,reccomend it to any islay fan but be quick.I wanna give give it a ten but wont...maybe the 4 year old though,cant wait.
