Tasting Notes

Nose: Soft yet persistent peat reek, merging with delicate floral and honey notes, crowned by a mild grape-like sweetness from the Moscatel casks Palate: A mouth-coating wave of smoke and sea salt, balanced by nuanced orchard fruit, hints of honeyed raisin, and a soft oak spice Finish: Lingering and lightly sweet, fading into a gentle, briny smokiness, with lingering traces of dried fruit sweetness and oak-driven warmth

Unveil a new dimension of Islay’s smoky charm with the Caol Ila Distillers Edition 2022 Release, double matured in Moscatel oak casks and bottled in 2022. This special finish harmonizes Caol Ila’s signature maritime peat and subtle citrus notes with a gently sweet, fruity depth from the Moscatel influence. The result is a sophisticated, layered single malt that marries Islay’s rugged coastal essence with a luxurious, wine-kissed warmth.

Why We Think You’ll Love It:

Showcases Caol Ila’s iconic smoky-saline profile, refined by an elegant Moscatel finish
Offers heightened sweetness and fruit nuances that complement, rather than overshadow, the classic peat
A Distillers Edition bottling, guaranteeing an elevated and collectible expression of Caol Ila
Ideal for both avid peat lovers and those seeking a richer, more velvety take on Islay’s signature style

Immerse yourself in this rare fusion of coastal peat and wine-cask indulgence—a Caol Ila release that captures the dynamic interplay between Islay tradition and an inspired finishing flourish.
