Released by the Scotch Malt Whisky Society (SMWS), this single malt, single cask release was distilled in 1996 and is one of the society's "Oily & Coastal" bottles. It was aged for 20 years in a first-fill oloroso sherry hogshead before bottling at cask strength of 49.3% ABV. As is the case with all SMWS releases, it is non-chillfiltered. This was released in celebration of the 2018 Fèis Ìle (Islay Festival), one of three bottles created for the occasion.

Un nez rond et légèrement tourbé, un peu caramélisé, splendide, quelle balance ! Attaque franche qui monte vite et délivre une superbe charge de tourbe, quel plaisir ! C'est fin, rien ne dépasse, tout est parfait. La finale est très très longue mais subtile, tourbée mais pas trop, un peu iodée et fumée sur la langue, un groooooos kiff !
Same style and price bracket, best rated first.
