About
Callisto VIII is a compelling Islay Single Malt matured in Ruby Port Wine cask, showcasing a distinctive smoky and complex character from Scotch Universe. This bottling marries Islay's peated heritage with the rich influence of port wood maturation, creating a whisky of considerable depth and intrigue. The nose presents dominant smoke notes balanced by pleasant dry sherry undertones and subtle fruit aromas. On the palate, an oily mouthfeel carries through BBQ meat and peat smoke, alongside roasted peppers, bright lemon zest, and raisin sweetness. The finish is medium-length and satisfying. A whisky for the experienced enthusiast who appreciates bold, smoky complexity with unexpected refinement from its port cask influence.
