But there’s so much more to Islay than whisky (although the single malts it produces are nothing short of spectacular), and I think it’s a real shame that so many people obsess over the spirit and completely forget about the history and scenery that the island has to offer. Unlike the visitor centre which is only open March-October, the islands are open all year round and can be accessed via a wooden walkway through boggy reed beds. It won’t take long to walk there but there’s a surprising amount of insect life to see in the summer which youngsters will no doubt find particularly fascinating.

The distillery that Finlaggan comes from is shrouded in mystery. I’ve been Nancy Drew-ing it for years now. Trader Joe’s is privately owned, so all supplier and distributor information is undisclosed. Industry sleuths surmise Finlaggan is Lagavulin. According to Josh Peterson, author of The Whiskey Jug and co-runner of the Southern California Whiskey Club, Finlaggan has been all-but-confirmed to have come initially from the Lagavulin distillery, but is currently said to originate from Caol Ila. There’s a small car park at the centre which is free to use but you’ll have to pay a small admission charge to get to the main attraction where you’ll find a collection of ancient gravestones, relics and buildings on a small island on the loch, all of which are related to the Lords of the Isles. A notch or two above Aldi’s, it’s more of a “Whole Foods Light.” There is a vast frozen section and meals to-go galore for the lazy single person. Trader Joe’s was established in LA in the late sixties, and you can tell. The stores are adorned with Tiki-themed signage and bric-a-brac, which was the trendy LA style at the time. If any provision of these Terms is held invalid, the remainder of the Terms shall continue in full force and effect.This was a fun dram because it revealed more to me throughout my week of sipping it, whereas the others plateaued. At least there are a couple of models of Viking longships to keep them entertained while you’re reading the information boards and there are a few relics recovered from the area to look at as well, but the main event is exploring the islands.

It’s an average-tasting dram. Its only offense is it’s dull. I’d pour for guests that don’t know anything about Scotch, and they’ll like it just fine. Score 5/10 Mystery surrounds this Islay single malt scotch, as there are many who wonder which distillery is responsible for producing the whisky. There is little to no information on the distillery responsible and the only information that is available is that it is a series in The Vintage Malt Whisky Company’s portfolio. Loch Finlaggan is a place on Islay that was of great importance in western Scotland during the 13 th to 15 th centuries. Known as the Center for the Lordship of the Isles, the historic Scottish castle was home to Clan Donald; often called the Cradle of Clan Donald.

The National Choice

In the mouth: Rich mouthfeel, tongue coating, fills your head with delicate geranium, iris, and lavender. There is a waxy chocolatey-ness to it that makes me drool. I wouldn’t recommend reducing this with water; it seems to flatten the smoke instead of enhance it. Keep in mind, I’m a smoke fiend, but it’s really the balance of light smoke and spring garden that makes Finlaggan so excellent–and the balance is delicate.
