Old Ballantruan 'The Peated Malt' 70cl Whisky
Customer Rating
“I love peaty Islay malts but was looking for a change and thought a peaty yet light Speyside sounded unusual. First taste was underwhelming but maybe my expectations were wrong. Anyway, revisited the following evening and I am now a big fan. Complex smoke with a very smooth and rich finish. Will buy again. ”

Overall
The nose is full and rich. There are notes of vanilla fudge and chewy toffee with shades of dried herbs and crème de cacao. There are notes of gentle peat and creosote with a touch of menthol and notes of malt extract. The palate is full and punchy. There are notes of barley sugar and toasted cereals, a cardboard note with hints of vanilla fudge and notes of chewy dark peat. There are tones of lemon marmalade and herbs. The finish is long and smooth with notes of soft wood smoke and barley sugar enriched peat.
