Caol Ila 12 Year Old Whisky 43% abv

Picture of Caol Ila 12 Year Old Whisky

❄️ Chill Filtered

🖍 Added Colour

Colour 🌈 : Gold

Nose👃🏼 : Smoky sand dunes, BBQ smoke, smoked kippers, bacon, red berries, vanilla toffee

Taste 👅 : Leather, tar, ash trays, smoked meats, some sweet vanilla notes and black pepper

Finish 🏁 : The smoke lingers like your mouth after a night of smoking. Some ginger spice is there and charred oak

Thoughts 💭 : It’s a peaty peaty dram, I’m not a huge peat fan but when I find a good peated dram I love it. This isn’t one of those times, it seems just a little too simplistic to me and essentially just like someone blended an old cigarette and liquified it. Big peat fans may love it but it’s not for me, try a Lagavulin 16 instead.

Sláinte!
