Tasting Notes

air Nose
yep, whenever the ABV’s higher, the cask’s influence has been lighter, that’s almost a law. That’s why this is tenser, sharper, perhaps a tad more brutal, and certainly more maritime. Kelp, crabs, oysters, whelks (we’re good friends with the whelks), green olives… All is fine. With water: superb, sea breeze, that walk on the beach with friends, beach bonfire, guitars… (oh no, not guitars!)
restaurant Palate
yes yes yes. Sharp, blade-y, salty, lemony, sea-ish… This is proper Caol Ila. Not saying the others weren’t, of course, but this is perfect. With water: immaculate Caol-Ilaness. Not a complicated whisky, and it wouldn’t go beyond 90 in my book, but it is a solid 90 for sure
timer Finish
lemon and rhubarb tarte with meringue and a few drops of Caol Ila poured over
