Tasting Notes

Colour

gold

air Nose

rather discreet, grassy at first sniffs. Takes off on wood smoke (birch?) and fusel oil, cider apples and lemon juice. Hints of porridge. Notes of freshly cut grass, green tea. Funnily, there’s also notes of new make after all these years. High-end wheat beer. Lemon sweets. Excellent nose

restaurant Palate

sweeter, bold, creamy, with beautiful balance. Maybe not very complex but the peat and crystallised lemons combo works perfectly well. Earl grey tea. Hints of strawberries

timer Finish

long, sweet, fruitier now (tangerines). Excellent, with a perfect balance. A sweeter old Caol Ila. 89 points. Caol Ila 26 yo 1975/2001 (56.1%, Signatory, cask #459, 242 bottles)
