A STORM CLOUD OF FLOWERS

From Islay, this 9 year old spent its life in a refill barrel and is 60.9%

Flavour proflle:  Young & spritely

Outturn:  204 bottles

Panel's tasting note:  "A sweetly perfumed and floral cloud gave way to puffs of wheat breakfast cereal, salted caramel and sawdust in a dunnage warehouse before condensing into heavier dried papaya, samphire and Turkish delight in a sandalwood box. The texture was superbly rich and mouth coating with a buttery oiliness of shortcrust pastry and lifted sweetness of maple syrup in Earl Grey tea with lemon peel. Water released a complex interplay between sweet orange, vanilla ice cream, tuna steaks and leather alongside sweet and salty popcorn with a refreshing finish of Fisherman’s Friends and tangy wood spices."

Drinking tip:  "Prepare to be surprised"
