Elements of Islay, a range of small batch, independently bottled whiskies, is where the elements of flavour collide. Every sip of ‘Elements of Islay’ is a true taste of Islay. The new range has been inspired by the flavour, smell and taste of nature on Islay and all that it bestows.
The core range comprises three permanent expressions: Cask Edit, Bourbon Cask and Sherry Cask. These are complemented by limited edition single malt bottlings from individual Islay distilleries identified with periodic symbols and batch numbers.
Cask Edit
Cask Edit is made with a composition of bourbon, sherry and refill casks and was released in 2022 as part of Elements of Islay’s new core trilogy, bottled at 46% ABV with natural colour and without chill-filtration.
Tasting Notes
Nose: Charred oak and candied nuts, with heaps of fresh orchard fruits, are followed by soft praline and creamy vanilla. Delicate peat smoke floats seamlessly throughout.
Palate: Woody caramel opens the way for fresh almond croissants and robust roasted coffee beans. A dusting of pebbly petrichor mingles with earthen vanilla and distant bonfire smoke.
Finish: Things remain fresh and fruity towards the end, with elegant smoke and sweet spice lingering.
