Words of Whisky (85)

:

It's no rival for its neighbour yet, but the Isle of Skye certainly gained an asset in Torabhaig.
Nose
A slight hint of rubber and iodine, but mostly gentle peat, some baking spices and creamy vanilla. There's a whisper of burlap, tobacco leaves and hemp rope as well. Fairly coastal.
Taste
A decent oiliness. The arrival is fairly ashy with a good amount of wood smoke, a nice salinity. The iodine makes an encore as well. Touches of freshly cut grass and vanilla, but also some subtle fruits. Lemon pith and lychees.
Finish
Peanut skins, lingering smoke and a pinch of salt. Slightly dry.
