Following more than 200 years of Islay tradition, malted barley is first cold smoked and then dried over a peat fire, lending the whisky a distinctive, rich flavour.

Smoky, with sea-breeze saltiness and a surprisingly sweet, long finish, each sip is like a bracing day on Scotland’s rugged coast. Named by Jim Murray’s Whisky Bible as 2019’s Best Single Malt Scotch 10 Years & Under, it’s best served neat or poured over ice.

Retails from R750 a bottle.
