Single malt and not good??? Funny things. Islay vanilla caramel...smoke.... for its 8 years and its price, it's super. Many compare whiskies of double aging at double the price, etc. Misguided! Also, I will express my opinion... what does someone think they will understand if they drink a malt that is ten times the price??? A small difference in taste, usually smoother... And so??? Spend 300 -500 euros for a taste idea. I mean, the high prices are mostly due to rarity and small bottling rather than a significant difference. A lot of money for an idea!! If you have it, there’s no problem!!!!

Very good peated whisky. 4 stars because it lacks something compared to my top choice, Ardbeg.

In my opinion, it has a nose of charcoal, lemon, wood, roasted nuts, and a hint of thyme. The taste is mainly sweet tobacco, lemon, roasted nuts, with the strong flavor of oak wood tying it all together beautifully. The aftertaste is long-lasting, with plenty of wood, truffle, lemon, and a subtle sweetness of honey. Very satisfied.

Very good for its price.
Smoke and iodine in the nose with a little acidity of lemon for the sweet surprise in taste from vanilla, honey, caramel, bacon, and a spicier aftertaste with smoke and barbecue!

A smoky whiskey, the smoke is one-dimensional on the nose. In terms of taste, it lacks the ashiness of Lagavulin 16, for example, which makes it "friendlier". There is a hint of iodine, with a bit of sweetness at the end. I would describe it as "rounded".
