Tasting Notes

Colour

white wine

air Nose

the modern style was already there, with more flints, chalk, lemons, some notes of gentian (Suze), some grassy smoke, and something more medicinal. Mercurochrome. With water: more green apples, rough ales, and bandages. This was clearly medicinal

restaurant Palate

seawater blended with limoncello, and just a touch of varnish. The smoke got more aggressive, having said that, which may suggest that CI got frankly peatier around the year 1990. Just like Bowmore, you’re right. With water: grapefruits and almonds, plus a very wee soapiness. Not something that never happens with Caol Ila

timer Finish

long and very salty. This one would even leave some salt on your lips, mind you!
