Aerolite Lyndsay 10 Year Old - The Character of Islay Company

From The Character of Islay Whisky Company comes a mysterious Islay single malt that goes by the name Aerolite Lyndsay. The peaty whisky has been sourced from an undisclosed distillery on the island, though we have been told that the liquid was aged for 10 years in a mixture of bourbon barrels and Spanish oak sherry quarter casks, which sounds thoroughly delicious.

The first bottling from The Character of Islay Whisky Company launched September 2019 was this anagramed Aerolite Lyndsay (or Ten Year Old islay), presented at 46% and was  matured in 70% ex-bourbon barrels and 25% Spanish oak sherry quarter casks, with the final 5% coming from specially-selected ‘character’ casks – all from an undisclosed Islay distillery.
