Tasting Notes

Colour

white wine

air Nose

well in their style and genre. Some smoky buttered dry apple juice and growing hints of fresh mint, dill, and lemongrass. Some liquorice wood too, maybe more than in earlier bottlings. Very nice nose

restaurant Palate

it is the softer side of Caol Ila, to the point where I’m wondering if it’s not a blend of ‘Highland’ Caol Ila and ‘Islay’ Caol Ila. So unpeated and peated. It’s also very citrusy (pink grapefruits) and tends to become appropriately salty

timer Finish

medium length, and it’s rather fruity and sweet. That’s smoked sweets, in fact
