Elements of Islay Cask Edit is an Islay blended malt Scotch whisky from Elixir Distillers, matured in refill, bourbon and sherry casks and bottled at 46% ABV.
Cask Edit is part of the core trilogy alongside Sherry Cask and Bourbon Cask. It marries rich, smoky single malt from Islay's south coast with a fresher, fruitier style from the north of the island, and is bottled at 46% for a balance of drinkability and personality.
Elements of Islay celebrates the full spectrum of Islay's distilling character, from the medicinal intensity of the south coast to the lighter, more floral north, capturing the island's peat smoke, coastal salinity and depth.
Approachable yet characterful, it makes a fine gift for smoky whisky lovers.
Savour it neat or in your favourite whisky cocktail.
Scotch whisky must be distilled and matured in Scotland for at least three years in oak casks, and any age statement on the label refers to the youngest whisky in the bottle.
Islay, off Scotland's west coast, is famous for its smoky, peated single malts.
A blended malt combines single malts from several distilleries, with no grain whisky.
Refill casks have held whisky before, giving a gentler oak influence that lets the spirit's character show.
Bottling at 46% ABV preserves more of the whisky's natural texture and flavour.
