Chestnuts roasting on an open fire, and the look of ampersands on a label. It makes us feel all warm and fuzzy, because it means the &Whisky folk have been up to their usual, delicious tricks. Here, a spectacular 50:50 blend of 10-year-old Islay and sherried Islay single malts cosy up together to give you Roasting Chestnuts & Peat Fire Embers & Mince Pies & Hygge. Hygge is a Danish word describing a feeling of warmth, cosiness, and well being, so kick back and enjoy this full-flavoured, fireside dram, full of superb smoke and sherry sweetness.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Hot roasted chestnuts, buttery shortbread, mince pies, and a touch of Islay sea spray.
Palate
Smouldering peat builds, with sticky muscovado sugar, cinnamon and waves of sherry fruit sweetness.
Finish
Sweet, roasted chestnut smoke lingers, along with comforting mince pie spice.
Overall
It doesn't get much better than a dram of this and a warm blanket on a cold, winter's evening, we reckon!
