Tasting Notes

Colour

white wine

air Nose

powerful and closer in style to the Duthies than to the High Spirits. More vanilla and wet papers. Kelp. Very powerful, water is needed. With water: the whiffs of kelp divide into myriads of other coastal notes but we shan’t list all the seaweeds and seashells we could find in the Oxford Dictionary, shall we? Extremely maritime

restaurant Palate

very sweet, pearish, salty and earthy, but let’s not take any more chances, this is very powerful indeed. With water: now we have one of these flinty, lemony, zesty Caol Ilas that always remind us of some Alsatian Rieslings (but are there other Rieslings?) Very kippery too (which the Riesling aren’t)

timer Finish

long, clean, straightforward. Caol Ila
