Caol Ila Old Malt Cask 27 years old for The Whisky Barrel Tasting note

By Miguel in Tasting , Caol Ila , The Whisky Barrel

“When you stop finishing whiskies or trying mad cask combinations and just keep ageing it in a good cask you get such great whiskies like this Caol Ila.”

92
Caol Ila Old Malt Cask 27 year 1984 The Whisky Barrel

This dram has a amber-like color.

Nose (91): more than average. peat, salt, iodine, citrus, sea, tropical fruits. A pure Caol Ila pleasure.

Palate (92): smooth, powerful, oily. peat, salt, citrus, floral, wood, pepper.

Finish (92): longer than average. peat, citrus, herbal, spices.

So based on other whiskies I have already tasted I rate this Caol Ila Old Malt Cask 27 year 1984 The Whisky Barrel with 92 points over 100.

Thanks to The Whisky Barrel for this nice official sample.
