Chocolate caviar
Cask No. 33.96
We were instantly transported to a maltings on Islay – peat reek and fresh saltiness; chocolate roasted malt fondue and gingercake – warming, friendly and intensely mellow peat. Earth and warm soil brought thoughts of dunnage warehouses at dusk after a hot day. The unreduced palate was pure peatiness, both sweet and salty with a chalky texture, sugared almonds and Manzanilla sherry. The reduced nose held our interest, with salted toffee, dark chocolate and liquorice whirls with smoked almonds. The palate was now exceedingly smooth with velvety peat encased in rippling chocolate. The distillery, at the end of the Kildalton Road, has three pagoda roofs.
