Nose

Sweet-spicy, fresh sea-air notes with hints of preserved fruit; adding water brings out polished wood notes.

Palate

Immediately sweet and fruity with a balancing bitterness. As befits its age, Caol Ila’s trademark smoky-medicinal character is controlled rather than exuberant. Smooth & complex.

Finish

Long, sweetly drying with more smoke coming through.
