Torabhaig Allt Gleann The Legacy Series

Smell

On the nose, it becomes clear what it's all about: the smoke profile takes center stage. Refined sugar and vanilla from the bourbon casks form the foundation. Barbecue bacon is ever-present. The smoke presents itself mineral-maritime, almost asphalt-like. We think of a rocky pebble beach.

Taste

On the palate, the peat fire is also in the foreground. A smoldering campfire surrounded by sugary sweetness and a hint of malt. Here, the maritime flavors of seaweed and sea salt become slightly more prominent. There's also a certain vegetable-like quality that we would describe as white beans and parsnips.

Finish

On the finish, Torabhaig is long, dry, and powerfully salty. The central theme of smoke, ash, coast, and sea continues. In the finish, there's a hint of oak - like a barrel of pickles.
