Since our fifth anniversary bottling, we have finally had the opportunity to release such a stunning, high-age Islay whisky again. This is the first 1991 vintage we have bottled, and the result is simply a huge surprise. Being picky, we are accustomed to preparing for the worst when dealing with less popular vintages. At the time, we thought, "It probably won't be as good as the 1989 batch..." but to our surprise, our attitudes softened immediately upon encountering a truly excellent whisky.
The flavor is a soft and sweet mineral smoke, accompanied by polished waxy and fruity notes. If we were to describe it in the Whiskyfun style, it would be: stubbing out a menthol cigarette with a freshly polished Italian leather shoe, while eating a slice of sourdough bread freshly toasted and spread with a thin layer of mirabelle plum jam.
Extremely drinkable, yet it possesses rich complexity and a long finish. Reminder: no matter how tempting it may be, please do not drink it with a straw.
