No distillery name. No age statement. Just pure Islay fire in the glass. Finlaggan Cask Strength is the island’s worst-kept secret, a fiercely peated single malt bottled at full strength and cloaked in mystery. What we do know? It’s unapologetically smoky, surprisingly refined, and packs serious character into every pour.

Finlaggan Cask Strength Islay Single Malt Whisky 70cl
Brand: Finlaggan | Category: Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky | ABV: 58% | Origin: Islay, Scotland | Vol: 700ml

Tasting Profile:
Nose: Explosive and maritime, bonfire smoke, sea spray, and scorched driftwood, with an undercurrent of medicinal peat and citrus peel.
Palate: Powerful and oily. Smoked bacon, cracked pepper, and iodine collide with layers of dark caramel, vanilla, and charcoal, it’s primal and precise all at once.
Finish: Long, smoky, and salty, like the last wave crashing over a charred shoreline. It fades slow and satisfying.

Production Details:
Bottled at a punchy 58% ABV and non-chill filtered, this expression delivers Islay peat in its rawest, most unfiltered form. While the distillery remains undisclosed, strong guesses point to a major Islay name but the mystery is part of the thrill.

Perfect For:
Stormy evenings, dramatic conversations, or simply when your palate demands intensity. This is the bottle you pour when nothing else will do.

Expert Notes:
Loved by peatheads and critics alike, Finlaggan Cask Strength is often compared to cask strength Lagavulin or Caol Ila but at a fraction of the price. It's a cult classic for those in the know.

Customer Reviews:
"Big smoke, big punch, big love. I bring this out when I want to feel something." – Dax A.
"No name? No problem. This mystery malt blew me away." – KC V.
"Peat monsters, you need this. Full stop." – Arnel R.

Interesting Fact:
The name “Finlaggan” comes from Loch Finlaggan on Islay, once the seat of the ancient Lords of the Isles. The whisky may be modern, but the roots run deep.

Serving Suggestions:
Neat, in a sturdy glass that can handle the weight. Add a few drops of water if you want the caramel and citrus to cut through the peat or don’t, and embrace the storm.

Distillery Background:
While the true source remains a closely guarded secret, Finlaggan is bottled by the Vintage Malt Whisky Company, a firm known for sourcing exceptional Islay casks. Whoever makes it, one thing’s clear: this isn’t for the faint-hearted. It’s Islay in its rawest, most exhilarating form.
