From Blackadder "The pinnacle of very smoky Islay malt whisky. To ensure continued supply, we have to be a bit secretive about exactly what is contained in each cask. Perhaps that is part of the fun in enjoying a dram or two of Smoking Islay - trying to guess what is in your glass!

Bottled as RAW CASK, each and every bottle contains its own share of the CASK SEDIMENT, as well as NATURAL OILS AND FATS that might otherwise be left behind when filling a cask-strength whisky straight from cask. We use a UNIQUE PROCESS when bottling to ensure the MAXIMUM FLAVOUR. We hope that you enjoy the fullest possible range of complex flavours in your glass of Blackadder RAW CASK."
