WHISKY TALES Heavily Peated Single Malt Scotch Whisky

One of the wildest mountainous regions in Europe, Scotland is known as the birthplace of whisky. Its 78,000 km2 are home to the largest number of distilleries in the world... A land of legends, Scotland was the birthplace of the "angels' share", a fable-like tale explaining a phenomenon observed during whisky production. The expression "angels' share", which refers to the volume of alcohol evaporated during cask ageing, actually originated on the Isle of Islay, in the village of Bowmore to be precise. Built on a circular plan in 1767, its church could not be penetrated by the devil, who always hides in the corners. With no place to hide, the devil, pursued by the villagers, ran to take shelter in the cellars of a distillery. There, he discovered angels feasting on the precious nectar, and was forced to leave the island. A worthy representative of Scottish know-how, this whisky has an intensely smoky profile, with lovely notes of lemon and iodine. Bottled at 46%, it is made without chill filtration or colouring.
