Much more mellow compared to the power of the 22 Year Old Rare Malts. However, what it lacks in its organic DNA of Port Ellen direct industrial flavour, it makes up in the more complex fruity Port Ellen notes. Slight shortfall compared to the 22.
Nose: sweet and floral, lightly coastal, mild burnt vegetal peat, mildly chocolatey, honey flavoured Fishermen's friend lozenge rustic mintiness
Palate: powerful explosion of honey, light wax, grape candy, grass, with a short dryish finish
