Tasting Notes

Colour

pale gold

air Nose

this one is oilier, with notes of sunflower oil, more paraffin, and since we're near the Alps, some mountain herbs. Including gentian, of course. The rest is classic: peat, oysters, ashes, a bit of vanilla… With water: pure young Caol Ila. No debate

restaurant Palate

powerful yet fresh, very lemony and very salty. Little lemons in brine and cigar ash. Oysters from the lake (yes, indeed…). With water: this is truly perfect young Caol Ila. No improbable wine getting in its way

timer Finish

a certain greenness, very taut. Green asparagus, perhaps. In any case, it's perfect, with these touches of butterscotch and amaretti in the aftertaste
