To accompany Highland Journey, Hunter Laing have gone and released Islay Journey, a blended malt marrying Islay whiskies! Getting to Islay isn't the easiest trip, so now you can transport yourself there slightly easier with a sip of this smoky whisky, which has been matured in bourbon hogsheads. This one certainly packs a maritime punch.
Hefty aromas of peat smoke, a flint-y minerality, sea breeze and bonfire ash, with a burst of red berry and vanilla sweetness.
Hallmark notes of earthy peat, sea spray and mineral-heavy seaweed, with icing sugar and creamier notes of vanilla and milk chocolate.
Medium length, with a sprinkle of sea salt and a dash of fresh citrus.
£4.08 - £39.03
As a peat lover this is disappointing, too much vanilla coming through and too light on the peat, I'd be hard pressed to rate this as a true Islay in the likes of Arbeg, Lagavulin, Caol Ila etc.
Intense barley flavours on the finish. Amazing.
Hunter Laing have really shown their blending skills with this one. A great representation of Islay whisky - filled with peat smoke, sea salt and seaweed, but with milk chocolate sweetness coming through. Delicious!
An excellent whisky! Can't wait to get my hands on another bottle!
