Caol Ila 12 Y/O

Although not as pronounced as its fellow peated neighbours, but still unmistakably classic Islay. Bottled at 43%.

Nose: Subdued, citric fruitiness; a whiff of bath oil and dentist's mouthwash. Fresh and appetising with soft smoke.

Palate: Good body, oily, tar, elegant smoke. Hints of boiled sweets and fruits.

Finish: Long, peppery, spicy warmth and lingering smoke.
