GENIE IN A BOTTLE

This 21 year old from Islay spent its life in a refill sherry butt and is 56.6%

Flavour profile:  Peated

Outturn:  510 bottles

Panel's tasting note:  "This was like a genie in a glass, from clean perfumed smoke and a well-used wooden pipe rack to sun scorched hay and heather, moving on to stem and crystallized ginger and finishing with seared scallops. We finally let the genie out and had a sip – it was a puff of glittering, well rounded, perfumed smoke. Sweet and floral at first, but then salted caramel arrived and in the finish, a pleasant dryness. With water, crunchy ginger and coffee iced biscuits as well as almond slices and the taste of lavender honey on burnt toast making this a very relaxed laid back experience."

Drinking tip:  "Close your eyes and make a wish"
