Chosen specifically for The Gathering 2019, Cask 112.48 A piece of paradise is not to be missed. This southern Highland dram exhibits eye-popping aromas and flavours of tropical fruits and confection spiked with herbaceous accents on a very clean and lively delivery. This special malt will serve as a brilliant beginning to your Gathering in America flight! Go next to Cask 68.25 Root beer effervescence from a distillery known for textured and well-balanced whisky. The style is seamless with sublime richness and a spicy, earthy touch to go ‘round. Our third selection combines the coastal spiciness of the northern Highlands with a toasted barrel protocol to yield a terribly exciting dram - Cask 52.27 Hot sauce in a washback will impress with a constellation of flavours ranging from slightly herbal to intensely rich. The dried fruit character marries well with confectionary and savoury elements for a compelling pour. Finally, Cask 53.293 A fish in bandages delivers a veritable Shangri-La of maritime cuisine, earthy smoke and vanilla sweetness for a complex dram to round out the flight. This cask represents the more intense side of northern Islay and is certain to please the palates of you peat freaks out there!
