Islay Malt 2007/2015 (51.6%, Sansibar for S Spirit Shop Selection, bourbon).
Colour: white wine.
Nose: gentler than the Chorlton, with more sweetness, cake, tartes. The cask was more active, and this vanilla adds a feeling of limoncello that’s anything but unpleasant. Notes of basil. With water: grass and seaweed, burnt and smoked. Brake pads.
Mouth (neat): a bit hot, otherwise rather rounded, on smoked citrus, tartes, peaty jams, lemon marmalade. With water: very good, with loads of grapefruits.
Finish: long, a tad candied. And now it seems that they have smoked sugarcanes.
