Palate: Medium body. Alcohol burn upfront betrays its youth. Evolves into rice vinegar, sour candies, silty water, fresh green moss, and a pervading bitter smokiness. A few drops of water goes a long way to tame the alcohol. The water also brings out a little bit of vague fruit. Finish: Long and with an interesting flavor like sweet-and-sour or Margarita mix. Fades into simple, slightly bitter, smoke and wet ashes.Each and every Member must be of legal drinking age in its country of residence to be allowed to use the Service.

Don’t forget to bring your spare change for the museum donation box – they rely on charity to run the place. Finlaggan is best known as the centre of the medieval Lordship of the Isles. The MacDonald lords, descended from earlier kings of the Isles, ruled over vast territories in the west and north in the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries, threatening the Stewart kings’ hold over Scotland. They developed their own distinctive culture and lordship. By the time, this world emerged into the light of history. It was Gaelic-speaking, but its heavily militarised character – relying on control of the seas with clinker-built ships – was not much different from their Viking predecessors.

This tasted more like a sherry finish than a rum finish. There are your usual suspects: walnuts, baking spices, and dark fruits. Perhaps it’s the general Allspice and fruit sweetness that gives it the swell at the end. It sustains itself a bit more that the first two, as is usually the case with sweeter spirits. Score 6/10
