Tasting note
- Appearance : or pâle brillant.
- Nose : chatoyant, picotant, il évolue sur la compote de pommes, l'herbe fraîchement coupée, le zest de citron vert, le massepain et une once de pain grillé. Notes de gingembre frais et de banane. Médicinal à l'aération avec un soupçon de caramel au beurre.
- Palate : huileuse, moelleuse et concentrée. Devient immédiatement herbacée (herbes sèches et aromatiques). Belle mise en valeur de toutes les saveurs primaires. Le caractère fruité presque suave (ananas, litchi) est équilibré par l'acidulé et le sel.
- Overall : très nette, elle se prolonge sur des notes de chêne et de plante herbacée (graine de sésame).

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
