Ultimate Beverage Challenge 95 points – Smoky yet decadent, almost reminiscent of dark chocolate with chili peppers. White flower, sandalwood, grapefruit, and pink peppercorn join in as well. Fruit and smoke play off of each other on the palate with hints of caramel, licorice, and brown spice. – 2018 Ultimate Spirits Challenge (Finalist) .April/2018
Sanaig, a small rocky inlet North West of the distillery is the name given to this continuously available release. Sanaig has a predominantly sherry cask influence owing to the significant time spent in oloroso sherry Hogsheads. These aged oloroso casks contribute a drastically transformed depth of colour and character compared to the mostly Bourbon cask matured Machir Bay. “A beautiful marriage of bourbon and sherry maturation balanced with classic Islay peat smoke and light citrus sweetness” Anthony Wills, Founder.
