Williamson 2015 (bottled 2023) (cask 181) - Berry Bros. & Rudd
Berry Bros. & Rudd bottled this 2015 vintage single cask Scotch whisky from an Islay distillery that occasionally bottles single malt under the Williamson name. It's not particularly hard to figure out which one.
Tasting Note by The Producer
Nose
This feisty Islay whisky surges from the glass on a gale of sooty peat, turf, iodine, and lanolin oils. Herein lies great complexity, unlocked by a teaspoon or so of water and a little time. Those with patience are rewarded with rich farmyard aromas, smoked hay, damp earth, and kippers.
Palate
The palate follows this theme, flowing from pure turf smoke to dark orange chocolate and composting fruit.
Finish
Smoke and spice flow in waves on the long finish.
