Notes
This Caol Ila was initially matured in a Hogshead and finished in an Oloroso Sherry cask.
Nose: Tarry peat smoke, Oloroso Sherry, prunes and Iodine. A hint of sweet, spiced beef and spent gunpowder.
Palate: Robust and complex, lots of dried fruit, citrus and vanilla layer on top of Caol Ila’s characteristic bonfire smokiness. Finishes with a pleasant salinity, Sherry wood and gentle peat smoke.

Smoked ham on the nose, with fresh lemon tones and just a hint of rubber. This mellows to give notes of cigar box, curing salts and just a hint of green apple peel.

Matured in PX, charred virgin oak and ex-bourbon. Sweet crème brulee and Hobnobs on the nose, balanced by herbaceous flavours of wild mint and delicate aniseed. Warm orange peel and light lemon sweets. On the palate this is still undoubtedly Ardbeg, although in a lighter guise. Tobacco leaf and sweet hay mix with honeyed notes … Continued

The palate is elegant, too, even though the peatsmoke begins to intensify. More vanilla throughout is balanced by … Continued
