Tasting Notes
Appearance

Golden.
Body
Body
Medium.
Nose
Nose
Sweet-spicy, fresh sea-air notes with hints of preserved fruit; adding water brings out polished wood notes.
Palate
Palate
Immediately sweet and fruity with a balancing bitterness. As befits its age, Caol Ila’s trademark smoky-medicinal character is controlled rather than exhuberant. Smooth and complex.
Finish
Finish
Long, sweetly drying with more smoke coming through.
