Rhinns 8 Year Old 2011 - Claxton's
An unusual Islay whisky here, this is a Rhinns single malt, which is another name for a heavily peated Bruichladdich! Claxton's bottled this one after it spent eight years in a single Madeira cask. It was bottled up at 57.9% ABV with just 187 bottles released, and there's bold notes of peat smoke among the honeyed cask influence.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Peat smoke leads to way, with aromas of damp grass and smoked heather.
Palate
More peat smoke kicks things off, leading into sweeter notes of pears in syrup and floral honey.
Finish
Buttery caramel lingers alongside a smouldering bonfire.
