CAOL ILA 2010 Very Cloudy S.V 40%
Single Malt Whisky, Scotland / Islay, 70cl, Ref: 19522A
Ce jeune Caol Ila saura ravir les amateurs de whisky tourbé. Avec sa texture en bouche grasse, très surprenante pour un whisky dilué à 40%, il est recommandé de consommer ce single malt frais entre 10°C et 15°C et s'il le faut, d'agiter sa bouteille afin que les matières grasses présentes dans le whisky se diffusent de façon homogène.
"Very Cloudy" est une gamme de "The Un-chillfiltered Collection". Non filtrés à froid et titrent 40% au lieu des 46% habituels. L’apparence trouble de ces whiskies provient des corps gras en suspension chargés en arômes qui n'ont pas été éliminés au moment de la filtration à température ambiante. Ces single malts possèdent une palette aromatique très développée et une texture en bouche grasse et surprenante.

- Palate : elle reprend les notes de champignons et de sous-bois. Elle se dirige vers le goudron. La tourbe faisant intrusion par étapes successives.
- Overall : poivrée, salée et terreuse.

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

Merchant
Although the independent bottler Signatory Vintage cannot claim to be one of the oldest in Scotland, it has managed to build up an extremely solid reputation amongst the great malt connoisseurs. The creator of the famous range The Prestonfield and many other well-known ranges, it is best known for its un-chillfiltered and cask strength bottlings that offer amateurs the chance to enjoy their whisky in its most natural form. It was also one of the first independent bottlers to acquire a distillery and now offers a growing number of expressions of one of the most artisan single malts available.
The line
Tout comme The Un-Chillfiltered Collection, les whiskies de la gamme Very Cloudy sont embouteillés à partir de petits lots de deux à cinq fûts. Réduits à 40% sans filtration à froid ni coloration, ils possèdent un profil riche, très aromatique et présentent un aspect légèrement trouble. Pour une expérience gustative des plus authentique, ils peuvent se déguster à température ambiante ou légèrement rafraîchis pour augmenter ce côté huileux. La gamme Very Cloudy est une exclusivité La Maison du Whisky.
