Description
A somewhat mysterious indie bottling here from Hunter Laing's First Editions range. It was produced by an Orkney distillery – but that distillery remains a mystery! There aren't many whisky distilleries on Orkney, mind, so that sort of narrows it down a fair bit. Anyway, it was distilled in 2006 and left to age in a refill hogshead for 15 years, before being bottled up in 2021. Only 309 bottles were produced.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Salted caramel, biscuit dough, a whisper of herb gardens in summer.
Palate
Quite chocolatey, though with sea spray salinity remaining at its heart.
Finish
Peppercorn and red chilli flake, mellowed by buttery crumpets.
