CAOL ILA 25 Years

Smooth and single malt that differs mainly from some whiskies of its age by not having extreme woody notes. Aged in American and European oak casks, this single malt calmed the precipitous character of smoky and iodised notes for a quarter of a century.

One for the long evenings. A well-balanced, contemplative old Caol Ila; the bonfire still burns, its intensity dimmed by age.

TASTING NOTES

COLOUR: Deep yellow.

NOSE: Unreduced, sweet-spicy, fresh sea-air notes. Hints of preserved fruit, perhaps. Adding a little water brings up subtle, fragrant polished wood.

TASTE: Unreduced, immediately sweet and fruity with a balancing bitterness. As befits its age, Caol Ila’s trademark smoky-medicinal character is controlled rather than exuberant. Good mouthfeel. Complex flavour. The fine balance of primary tastes persists: warming, smoky and long-lasting, it drinks very well straight. Adding water gives a sweeter start, then a light smokiness elegantly envelops the palate. Sweetly drying overall. Medium-bodied, elegant and smooth.

FINISH: Quite long, sweetly drying, with more smoke coming through. Pleasant aftertaste.
