Caol Ila 12 year

70 cl / 43%

Caol Ila lacks as single malt of the exposure and praise it has as a tool for whisky blenders.

It is a medium weight, but still packing plenty of potent phenols, this is a refined, powerful dram with a compensating oiliness. A balanced, peaty beauty.

If you like Caol Ila you should try Ardbeg Uigeidail.

“So earthy... no wonders I keep mistaking this Caol Ila one with Ardbeg, strong peat, earth and citrus aromas”

This dram has a fino-like color.
Nose (90): more than average. honey, peat, citrus, wood. Pure peat-xperience.

Taste (91): powerful, oily. peat, honey, earthy, citrus, vanilla, pepper. Peated and earthy... just miss the coffee notes of Ardbeg

Finish (90): longer than average. peat, honey, citrus, earth.
