Description
A fantastic new exclusive to The Whisky Shop, this limited-release from Berry Bros. & Rud is a 15 year old liquid from Islay bottled under the name ‘Williamson’, a nod to Bessie Williamson who owned a certain world-famous Islay Distillery during the 20th century.
Bottled at 56% abv, this brooding Islay dram opens with a nose of smouldering driftwood and oily rags, layered with cracked back pepper and sea soaked rope. The palate brings boiled lemon sweets and brine-laced peat, unfolding into clove-studded ham and tarred oak, with a striking note of aromatic camphor. The finish is long and medicinal, lingering with unapologetically bold phenolic peat smoke.
