Product description
Torabhaig is the first new distillery on the Isle of Skye to produce Single Malts in 190 years. For the distillery buildings, independent bottler Mossburn Distillers rebuilt an old farmhouse. The stones were used at the time, around 1820, to extend the existing farming property into a homestead. The second bottling in the Legacy Series, Allt Gleann, was distilled and casked between 2017 and 2018 and consists of no more than 30 casks.

Finish:
Comment: The colour is a straw-yellow similar to white wine. Upon nosing, it presents fresh and youthful notes with light peat smoke, citrus, herbaceous and floral hints, green apple, menthol, seawater, rubber, and a touch of solvent. Additional nuances become apparent after some time in the glass.
The palate is quite thin and watery, offering hints of peat, brine, oak, pepper, and little else.
The finish is medium-short, with subtle light smoke, brine, and some oak bitterness.
Overall, this Torabhaig did not impress me much. In my opinion it is inferior to other offerings from new distilleries, as it is too young, weak, lacking depth and complexity, and the price does not seem favourable. While I hope that Allt Gleann will improve in the future, I might consider giving it a second chance when older expressions become available in a few years.
