ISLAY STORM SINGLE MALT SCOTCH WHISKY

The single malt whisky from Scotland captures all the mysteries on and around the island of Islay in a single bottle. The distillery’s location on the west coast exposes it and the whisky to the extreme storms and influences of the Atlantic Ocean. This can also be perceived in the whisky.

The Islay Storm Single Malt is bottled by the independent bottler C.S. James & Sons. It is made from an unnamed Islay single malt, which reflects the typical smoky characteristics of the island. This is joined by maritime salt notes and a sweet, phenolic note. The Islay Storm Single Malt is bottled at 40.0% vol.
