Comments:
From the very new Wolfburn distillery, this isn't much more than 3 years old. Matured in Islay casks, and you can tell - peat and smoke in the background. It's overlaid by stewed apples and peaches though, and plenty of nuts as well. There's a good savoury meatiness in the finish. Good stuff.
Verdict:
I like this.
