A heavily peated Islay single malt whisky from Scotland, bottled by Hunter Laing & Co. Ltd. under the Scarabus brand. This limited edition received a finish in Bordeaux Grand Cru wine casks and is bottled at 57% ABV in 700 ml bottles. The wine finish brings dark berries, stewed plums and red wine spice to the smoky, maritime base character. Maraschino cherries, roasted nuts, salted caramel, molasses and oak complement the profile, with ginger and cinnamon on the spicy finish.

Tasting Notes

Nose

Dark berries and plum compote alongside roasted nuts and earthy peat smoke.

Palate

Maraschino cherries and roasted hazelnuts with juicy red wine fruit, salted caramel, molasses and spicy oak, plus smoky peat and pleasant warmth.

Finish

Long and balanced, with fruity sweetness and fine tannin embedded in peat smoke and wood spice, while ginger and cinnamon linger.
