CAOL ILA 5 ans 2011 - 60 ans LMDW Douglas Laing

Bursting with youth, this Caol Ila selected by Fred Laing and his team cannot keep still. Constantly moving between the wash backs, the still room, and the warehouse where it was aged, it knows that its five years are a considerable advantage in the furious race on which it embarks to bring us a hint of dried peat here, notes of camphor there, some exotic fruit further on, and notes of leather even further. Never running out of breath, it is always charging off on the attack, much to the taster’s delight.
