Torabhaig The legacy Series 2nd Edition Special Release Allt Gleann Batch Strength Single Malt Scotch Whisky from The Isle of Skye 61.1% 70cl

Torabhaig is a new Distillery on the Isle of Skye. 

They believe once you start to study peated spirit, there’s a beguiling complexity that awaits, a seemingly endless depth to explore. That inimitable Scottish peat reek on fine spirit can seem so tangible and present, and yet so ephemeral and impossible to pin down and define. There is so much more to peat that can be captured in a linear chart or PPM values. There are many, many faces and moods to peat, there is a balance to be found between strength and refinement, between elegance and robustness.

The quest to find this balance has been Torabhaig's obsession ever since the first day they fired up their stills. Well-tempered peat is the best way they can express what they are aiming for. And that’s one of the great things about Malt Whisky, especially the peated sort, there’s always something to surprise you, there’s always more to explore. This is heavy peat – tempered on the Isle of Skye.

This release has all the typicity of Torabhaig that you would expect, bonfire smoke, salinity, maltiness, and sweet, vanilla-led oaky spice.
