Islay single malt Scotch

A heavily peated single malt Scotch whisky from Islay, Scotland's most southwesterly island, with intensely smoky, medicinal, and maritime character alongside seaweed, tar, and coastal salt notes. Islay malts like Laphroaig, Ardbeg, and Lagavulin are used in Penicillin and smoky Mezcal-adjacent cocktails.

Flavor Profile

Intensely peaty, smoky nose with iodine, seaweed, brine, and maritime character. Palate is bold with medicinal peat, smoked malt, and briny depth. Very long, ashy, phenolic finish.
