Presentation
Mellow peat thanks to the Malaga maturation: Tight and nervous nose, fresh and floral, reminding grilled almond. Full of flavors, powerful and nervous, it feels rounds with liquorice flavors. Silky texture makes feel soft. Nice length, very fresh, round, spicy and pepper, slightly toasted. Like a fight between Malaga and Peat: “Candid” means that this whisky has been bottled just before that peat disappears because too wood ageing. Disclosure malt whisky was the whisky made in 2008 : the first Islay whisky that convinced to continue this kind of maturation.
