Tasting Notes

Colour

pale gold

air Nose

greatest of news, no weird muscaty notes at first nosing. In fact, it’s a rather ‘natural’ Caol Ila, and even the slightly winey notes that you first get (no straight mucat, just ‘average’ white wine) tend to vanish. And after just one minute, it’s plain and pure Caol Ila. Hurray!!!

restaurant Palate

an extra-sweetness in the attack indeed, rather towards tinned litchis and maybe Turkish delights, but it’s much better integrated than with the first version. Touches of violet liqueur (Parfait Amour), then more pink grapefruits. A feeling of good sauvignon. The peat is moderate

timer Finish

not very long but well balanced, between the smokiness and the fresh fruits
