Finlaggan Old Reserve is a surprisingly approachable Islay whisky that masterfully balances smoke and sweetness. With its mysterious distillery and rich flavour profile of peat, citrus, and vanilla, this is a must-try for every whisky enthusiast!
The nose of Finlaggan Old Reserve features a distinctive note of new tennis balls, similar to Laphroaig, alongside its classic smoky and fruity aromas.
Pair this whisky with smoked oysters – the briny, smoky flavours of the oysters enhance the whisky’s peat and peppery notes, while the sweet malt provides a delightful contrast.
