Scotland Stephenson's Spirits Reviews

Lombard Tidal Ebb

Review Date: October 14, 2009
Category Info: Whiskey / Whisky :: Vatted Scotch
Distilled From: Barley
Retail Price: $$$$$ ($50-$100)
Bottle Size: 750 ml Bottle
Strength: 40%
Origin: Scotland - Islay

Tasting Notes:

Rich amber/caramel color.
Huge peaty and smoky nose.
Soft on the palate but the flavor is bold smoke and peat. The flavor stays with you a long time on the finish with layers of smoke. Overall, a very light bodied whisky that shows strong Islay character. Interesting. A good intro to Islay smoke.
