Finlaggan Old Reserve Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml)

Description

Earthy smoky peat and salty ocean breeze on the nose. Pungent peat smoke, chewy sweet malt, pepper, tar and a touch of iodine. Long and warming finish with smoky ashes of the peat fire.

Finlaggan is very much the Secret Islay. The name of the distillery from which it comes, is a closely guarded secret and known to only a select few.

Finlaggan Old Reserve, is a peaty distillation from one of Islay's finest distilleries. It's rich in the aromas of the peat smoke which dried the barley, and of the Scottish sea shore where it matured.

Finlaggan was a launch brand for the Vintage Malt Whisky Company Ltd, which focuses on bottling whiskies from the Highlands and Islands. The brand was designed to embody the spirit of Islay (it’s named after a loch on the north side of the island, just west of Port Askaig where the Macdonald Lords of the Isles had their seat), and does so in three core NAS expressions: Old Reserve (40% abv), Eilean Mor (46% abv) and Cask Strength (58% abv).
