Mac-Talla Mara is an Islay single malt which is focussed on the coastal deliciousness that you often find in whiskies from the famous Hebridean island. Though we don't know which distillery on Islay this whisky came from, we do know that it was drawn from American oak casks, and bottled at cask strength by the Morrison family, which has long been involved with the world of Scotch whisky.
Salted lemons, caraway, toasted teacakes with melted butter, seaweed.
Cask char and burnt ends, with a touch of honey. Still packed with sea breeze and maritime malt notes.
Petrichor, sea salt, a touch of smoky bacon.

This whisky is awesome I apsolutly love it I've drunk at least 6 bottles and have more in the stash It's really clean peat zesty and with water which should be mandatory with Islay Whisky this is true to form brings out the peat and some medicinal and seawater clean smoke, But water Really wakes it up, This is my no1 daily dram. As we get it Islay is no2 Laphroaig 10 cask strength no3 This is clean Islay Whisky with minimal cask interference, If only Laphroaig would start doing refill or 3x refill and get Away from the vanilla, This is great stuff.
I love the first sip - very heavy start, a lot of smoke, a bit of salt, no sweetness at all. The finish is quite weak and the flavours do not last long. But it is not unpleasant finish with a lot of warmth, though.
