Produced by MacDuff International, Islay Mist is a peaty-scented blend.
Its composition is based on whiskies from the famous Laphroaig distillery.
Florian's tasting notes
The color is golden, the tears are fine and slow.
Nose: very sweet, creamy seems to be the right adjective. Caramel and vanilla paste, warm peat, then gentle smoky sea spray. Heated grist under friction, a hint of seaweed.
On the palate, it's very light, iodized and mineral, with a slightly smoky return, a little earth and grass.
The finish is mineral, iodized and herbaceous. A touch of smoke lengthens the finish.
"First steps in peat? It's ideal for a first meeting, light and with a sense of identity, and its value for money is perfect..."
Christophe
Very, very good Islay, very fragrant, with a marked smokiness. I didn't know it before, so I was surprised. To be reserved for lovers of peaty and other richly flavored whiskies.
