Puni Alba 3 Year Old Italian Malt Whisky (700ml)

A barley / grain / wheat mash whisky matured for three years in Marsala casks from Sicily and finished in hand selected casks from the Isle of Islay. Alba is the Italian word for 'dawn', as well as the Scottish Gaelic name for 'Scotland'.

Tasting note: Much deeper in colour than the "Nova", this pours deep bright gold and offers unusual, drier styled, aromas of subdued clove, muted vanilla and pencil shavings. Five minutes air contact suggests dried red fruits? Digestif biscuits? Better defined on the palate, where sweet peat flavours are nicely integrated with spicy fruits. Concludes, semi-sweet, medium long with lanolin, white pepper and digestif biscuits hinted in the aftertaste. A well rounded and relaxed peated style. 43% Alc./Vol.
