Tasting Notes
Tasting Notes
Nose: Wonderfully concentrated pure, clean Caol Ila ash peaty and medicinal, with rich fruit, spicy and fragrant. With water, the fragrant smokiness comes singing through. Taste: Sweetness and maltiness strike first, then are quickly overwhelmed by peat smoke and intense, clean, crisp flavours. Caol Ila signature smoky bonfires are here, and build to quite a size. Overall, drying, in a beautifully balanced, complex, elegant development, complemented with cinnamon spice.
