Poit Dhubh 8 Years Old Whisky (70cl 43% ABV)
Poit Dhubh, pronounced "potch ghoo" and literally meaning "black pot", is also the Gaelic term for an "illicit still" which traditionally were the source of some of the most revered whiskies. The producers of this whisky are unwilling either to confirm or deny that Poit Dhubh comes from an illicit still...but it certainly deserves to be a revered whisky.
Undeniably west-coast, undeniably Gaelic, and great flavour.
It is a fine unchilfiltered blended malt at 43%, a large proportion matured in sherry casks, producing a soft graceful flavour with a trace of peaty rich smoke.
