    Aerolite Lyndsay 10 Year Old - The Character of Islay Whisky Company

    From The Character of Islay Whisky Company comes a mysterious Islay single malt that goes by the name Aerolite Lyndsay. The peaty whisky has been sourced from an undisclosed distillery on the island, though we have been told that the liquid was aged for 10 years in a mixture of bourbon barrels and Spanish oak sherry quarter casks, which sounds thoroughly delicious. It's bottled without any additional colouring, or any of that chill-filtration, too.

    Oh, and the name? If you havn't Countdown-ed it out already, Aerolite Lyndsay is in fact an anagram of the words ‘ten year old Islay’! See what they did there? Very nifty.

    Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt

    Nose

    Lots of maritime peat, with notes of iodine intertwined with honey sweetness, paprika, salted caramel and old bookshelves.

    Palate

    Smoke returns alongside mint dark chocolate, espresso and new leather, with honey and soy sauce mixed together.

    Finish

    Boiled mint sweeties, liquorice allsorts, bonfire smoke and toffee penny, with a pinch of salt.

    4.5/5

    Nose - peat, fruit, zest Palate- peat and honey Finish - long, peaty and peppery (due to younger age and higher ABV).Different region, but I could swear this came from Tobermory. I was quite impressed, nonetheless. On an unrelated note, anagram is a clever attempt, but 'The Character of Islay' would sound better.

    its on my list

    Im no expert but I found this gem when i started my whisky adventures, really enjoyed it as I like peated whisky, until the price went up by 50% …. Glad to see its back sensible and I will be re stocking .

    Excellent! A better version of most Islay’s

    Got this as a present from a whisky connoisseur friend , who mostly drinks independent bottler’s whisky and man - I was not disappointed. It has everything you would expect and know to love form an Islay. So much balance between peat, fruit, delicate toffee mouthfeel and a touch of saltiness. A real treat with zero caramel and gentle , sweet peat!

    So smooth

    Present for my birthday which I am currently enjoying. Love Islay whisky…this is up there with the best

    Wicked. Do it.

    I loved this. Such an approachable dram and Islay lovers will enjoy trying to work out which distillery it comes from. It’s not overly peaty at all. My new house whisky.
