WildmintCloud5 OctThere’s a pleasing contrast here: campfire smoke, seaweed and grilled lemon on the nose, then raisins and dark chocolate alongside peat smoke and black pepper on the palate. The Sherry Cask designation and cask #AM141 add useful specificity, though the label alone doesn’t say which flavours came from the cask. Sea salt and orange zest keep the long, smoky finish lively. A well-balanced Islay malt with plenty to hold an enthusiast’s attention.
