Distilled at an undisclosed distillery on Islay, and matured in a single hogshead (cask #6613). Limited to 333 bottles.

The An Undisclosed Islay Distillery 2009 14 YO cask #6613 (Berry Bros & Rudd) goes on sale in Norway later this week at NOK 1991 (18894201).

Nose: Sweet peat and vanilla lead the way, soon deepening into rich fruity notes and black smoke. With time, the aroma of soot-covered marshmallows adds a playful, smoky touch.

Taste: Full-bodied with a delightful burst of sweetness. Sugar, spice, and an irresistibly playful character keep the palate engaged.

Finish: Medium to long. The sweetness gives way to a peppery dryness, followed by layers of dark chocolate, earthy vanilla, and subtle hints of honey and green herbs. A refreshing minty note rounds it off.

Comment: Charmingly sweet and smoky.
