    Color
    Maple syrup.
    Nose
    Smoke and burnt sugar. Seaspray. Nothing harsh. You do not need an experienced nose to appreciate this Islay.
    Body
    Rich and unctuous. A blanket for the tongue.
    Palate
    Complements the nose completely. No surprises. Positively juicy with pipe tobacco, vanilla, aromatic honey and a touch of the sea.
    Finish
    Melts into you like the hands of a great masseuse.

    Hands down the best "affordable" Islay I've tasted. It beats 'em all with a trifecta of colour, body and nose. A bit pricey, but just plain worth it. Michael Jackson's rating is spot on!
