Members' comments "Disappointing, with an innocuous bouquet and too much alcohol. This is a malt from Islay, and not an Islay malt. I disagree with Gellert regarding the typical Islay flavour, which cannot be, as the malt comes from the mainland". "It tastes like an emasculated Bowmore". "A typical, fine Islay malt". "A pleasant bouquet, mainly of peat, but a beautiful taste".
