$36.00The Story
The Meikle Tòir 2019 6-Year-Old PX Cask #8718 is an exceptionally rare, single-cask peated Speyside malt selected by Master Distiller Billy Walker. This expression was matured in a first-fill Pedro Ximénez (PX) Sherry Hogshead, resulting in a rich, dark amber spirit that balances intense mainland smoke with deep sherry sweetness.
Reviewers on Whiskybase have praised this specific vintage for its complexity despite its young age, often scoring it around 89-90 points.
Nose: Initial scents of glue and alcohol (typical of high ABV) give way to sweet, freshly baked apple pie and heather honey.
Palate: Described as a "strong attack" of sherry that is both dry and sweet, with notes of dark chocolate and mocha.
Smoke Profile: The smoke is noted as being "subdued" rather than dominant, often described as "cold ash" or "barbecue flavor".
Finish: A long-lasting finish that transitions from grilled aromas to sweet roasted hazelnuts and icing.
