A single malt Scotch whisky from an undisclosed distillery on Islay, bottled by Morrison & MacKay. The name, The Big Strand, comes from the long sandy beach way out west on the Isle of Islay.
Delightfully coastal, with hints of oily barley underneath.
The coastal theme continues on the palate, with a touch of bonfires too.
Vanilla and smoke. Some fresh fruit sweetness.
First time for me. Usually Linkwood 15 yo is my favourite tipple. This was a lovely surprise. I just let it dissolve in my mouth the way my mentor told me. Really smokey and like Islay whisky sea flavours too.
why cant we get this anymore? One of the smoothest peaty malts I have had the pmeasure to taste
I first tried the on its first release at a whiskey festival; it is one of my top 5 whiskeys but it is sad that it has been sold out for months now; can't wait for its return
Lovely but I can not get my hands on a bottle at the moment. It has been so long I have nearly forgotten how good it is
I found this as a taster at the Scotch Whiskey Museum when visiting in 2017. Since then, it’s become my absolute favorite. If you appreciate peat, smoke and sea salt, this is the one for you. Since I can’t find this in the US, I was asking clients to bring bottles back for me. I don’t open one until I have a back up. For the price and the tasting notes and nose? It cannot be beat.
