A 2015 addition to the Finlaggan range, named Eilean Mor (those of you that know about Islay's geography will be familiar with that name). This expression has been bottled at a slightly higher strength than other Finlaggan release (not including the Cask Strength, of course). The whisky comes from an undisclosed distillery on Islay - it's a closely guarded secret as to which one...
Salty sea breeze and a touch of TCP.
Well-peated and rather intense. Spicy hints of black pepper.
A long finish of drying peat smoke.
nice copper colour,not to much colour added.Smoke,burning leaves and a medicinal touch on the nose. With a little water it opens up nicely with a sea salt opening and some pepper. Even if Finlaggan does not own his own distillery,and therefore it has to rely on some probably very well known malts from Islay a very decent malt for a nice price.
