Tasting note
- Appearance : or blanc à reflets verts.
- Nose : vif, précis. La tourbe jaillit littéralement du verre, elle est accompagnée de réglisse et de fleurs blanches. Complexe, il évolue sur des notes d'iris, de gentiane, d'iode et de sel. Caol Ila jusqu'aux bouts des doigts.
- Palate : à l'instar du nez, ferme, droite. La tourbe est présente, elle constitue la colonne vertébrale de ce millésime 1998. Elle se déploie sur les fruits exotiques (ananas, passion), sur la verveine, la sauge, la résine d'épicéa et l'herbe fraichement coupée.
- Overall : longue, riche. La fumée est omniprésente (cendres) ainsi que le cuir. Minérale (ardoise), elle évolue sur le sirop d'orgeat et la bouillie d'orge. Belle âcreté mêlée d'humus, de poivre et de noix.

The brand
As well as reflecting its smoky, malted barley, Caol Ila is also oily and peaty, with marine and vegetable notes. Its recent official bottlings, which are particularly expressive, have an intense smoky and peaty character with a good balance of saltiness and sweetness. Superb versions of this single malt have also been released by independent bottlers Gordon MacPhail & Signatory Vintage. Caol Ila’s stills, which are large and onion-shaped, have a strong influence on this single malt and give it a fairly light and delicate character. Find out more
