The second of historic blend Black Bottle's 2021 Alchemy editions is Black Bottle Alchemy Series Batch #2 Island Smoke, and it really sounds like a winner.
Over 20 different single malt components went into Black Bottle Island Smoke, and this is the more traditional of the two Alchemy Series bottlings, based around a 1984 blended malt and with a generous serving of peated whisky. At 46.3% Black Bottle Island Smoke looks like a great value drop.

If you like your Whisky matured in a sherry cask then you will not be disappointed with this one, the flavours transferred from the Oloroso butts are unmistakably sherry, with a mixture of fruitiness coming through once you’ve added a slug of water, in my opinion at this cask strength you need need a good measure of H2O to really appreciate this very fine reasonably priced Whisky.
Definitely would buy again !
