It is bottled at natural cask strength, without chill-filtration or added coloring, and comprises whiskies from Islay distilleries such as Ardbeg, Bowmore, Caol Ila, and Port Ellen. It is known for its heavily peated character, often described with notes of ash, tar, sea spray, and a balance of sweet and fruity undertones.
