The standout of the evening at a joint event. This spirit has a fascinating backstory involving a charity swim around Islay and a quarter cask collecting liquid from various distilleries there. The contents include expressions like 10-year Kilchoman Bourbon Cask, 17-year triple distilled Bruichladdich, 23-year Bowmore Pedro Ximenez casks, 10-year Lagavulin first fill sherry casks, 15-17 year Douglas Laing Laphroaig, 25-year Bunnahabhain, and Kilchoman Sauternes cask. The liquid itself is superb, featuring notes of vanilla, chocolate, caramel, peat, smoke, salt, and raspberries.
