Shelter Point Smoke Point Whisky is a limited edition release from the British Columbian distillery. It is made using malted and unmalted barley which is first aged in ex-bourbon barrels for 5 years. Then it is transferred over to barrels which formerly held peated whisky from Islay. Only 1044 bottles produced.

Smells of sea-smoke meets medicine cabinet. Tasting shows caramel, butter, pepper, and spice. Opens up nicely with a few drops of water to showcase it's sweeter side. Solid small batch whisky and looking forward to more.
Notes of caramel, vanilla and sea salt with some smoke. Iodine and campfire on the nose. Lots of flavour with a long finish.
Received a sample, not an Islay like peat, more gentle. Herbal with tobacco hints on the nose. Decent dram.
Disappointing, expecting more peat influence.
Same style and price bracket, best rated first.
