Ailsa Bay Single Malt
Single malt from Ailsa Craig, founded in 2007 with a capacity of 12,000,000 litres on the same site as Girvan. Several styles of malt whisky are produced there, from sweet and light to heavier and more sulphury (two stills have steel condenser rather than copper) as well as peated styles up to 50ppm.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Custard and some phenolic ash, some Big Red too, becoming more chalky and cereal driven with subtle golden syrup. As the producer's notes state, bacon then emerges.
Palate
Undoubtedly meaty 'n' peaty. More of that chalky cereal (dry muesli?) and golden syrup with Big Red in support.
Finish
Sweet, smoky and drying. More Big Red with vanilla.
Overall
The Big Red (spicy cinnamon sweets) are an ever-present but never threaten to dominate this sweet peaty treat.
