Single Malt
Scotland

Eight year old single malt from an undisclosed Islay distillery, bottled independently by the folks at Chapter 7, as part of their Chronicle range. Matured for the first five years in bourbon hogsheads, the whisky is then transferred to first fill bourbon barrels for the final three, to impart layer upon layer of bourbon cask character, which perfectly compliments the classic, peaty Islay profile.
Vanilla and peat, foam bananas with wafts of candied oranges.
Somewhat zesty, hints of lime and sweet orange cross with butter vanilla fudge and peat smoke.
Fresh oak, floral wafts of burnt lavender, sweet, creamy vanilla, and medium peat.
