Tasting Notes

Colour

straw

air Nose

it’s a pure, steely, whistle-clean Caol Ila. A little fennel, some sea water, fresh almonds, crab meat (yeah) and a mild smoke. Cigarette smoke. Feels much lighter than 58%, let alone 58.2% vol. (yeah right…) With water: hessian, a tiny wet dog (I’m sorry, Chihuahuas and Yorkshires), wet cardboard…

restaurant Palate

all is perfect, really perfect, ultra-clean, with just the right amount of peat, fruits, and peat (very funny, S.) The sherry is for the record, hardly noticeable. Perhaps one sultana. With water: meadows and farmyard after the rain, plus lots of ripe apples, as almost always in CI

timer Finish

medium, clean, with a touch of honey
