100° Proof is a punchy Islay single malt from Port Askaig. With notes of sweet fruit, peat smoke and minerality, this is a benchmark Islay whisky and a great everyday peaty dram at this price.
Tasting Notes (2)Excellent young sweet peat. Extremely simple, very good. Serge Valentin, whiskyfun.com

Producer's Tasting Notes
-
Nose
Rich, with a meaty smokiness that belies its light colour. Freshly cooked ham and burning logs are joined by a soft coastal character of sea spray and stony rock pools.
-
Palate
Sharp and stony initially, with an intense minerality that quickly becomes sweet and rich – milky coffee, milk chocolate and spicy cinnamon gobstoppers. The spice grows, adding liquorice and stewed apple with cinnamon, along with heavy charcoal smoke.
-
Finish
Sweet, spicy and very long. Cinnamon-spiced chocolate slowly fades to drying apple skin.
-
Comment
More powerful than you might expect, with carefully balanced smoke and fruit.

I wasn't taken by this initially but now I can't stay away from it. It has a perfect marriage of sweet and smoke and then the liquorice in the finish is exquisite.

I am 85yrs old. Find some malt whisky strong. I've been looking for a sweet whisky and this is it.

one taste of this opens all your eyes and taste buds I suggest before tasting blow into the glass and breath in as this is very strong Smokey but tasteful, good for a cold winter nights to take the chill away.

Vibrant, light coloured complex malt with smokey nose and sweet tangy citrous finish. Great whisky, quite extraordinary. Fabulous!
