Tasting Notes

Nose: Peat is prominent, naturally, combined with exotic tobacco. Cooked fruits - banana and pineapple, foil-wrapped and toasted over and open fire. Excellent underlying notes of red plums. Taste: Sweet phenols and earthy herbal notes interplay with blood orange and rich black grapes. Also, dark chocolate and French Brandy marzipan, with a hint of cracked black pepper.

Renowned for crafting both peated and unpeated expressions, Caol Ila offers iconic releases like the 12 Year Old and the Distiller’s Edition. Each year, the distillery plays a prominent role in Feis Ile, the Islay Festival of Malt and Music, delighting enthusiasts worldwide with its Islay single malt heritage and coastal charm.
