Caol Ila 12 Year Old (700mL)
Caol Ila 12 Year Old (700mL)
Fresh, sweetly fruity and smooth-bodied, Caol Ila 12 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky delicately balances a range of tastes. The clean, appetising nose shows subtle citrus fruit with just a puff of smoke.
or 4 interest free payment of $26.0

Details

Caol Ila is well known as one of the lighter, more nuanced and delicate of the Islay single malts with the 12-year-old showing subtle citrus fruit with the signature Islay smoke. Firm and smooth, it begins sweetly then yields a fragrant smokiness and a sweet-smoky, lingering finish.

Tasting notes

Nose

Fresh, herbal. Rubbed peppermint leaves, stemmy, damp grass, smoky. Oily, cigar leaves, smoked ham, hickory. Lemon peels at the harbour.

Taste

Smoked meat, honied pear, cinnamon, melon, waxy citrus and light bits of spice, tropical fruit, mint and oil.

Finish

Long finish, overall enough subtleties and complexities to be impressive, but not brutal and wearing out the palate.

4 Stars

A great mix of straw and seaside, it moves from sweet to smoky, fruity to oily across your palate. It's smoky, but not overwhelmingly so. A great whisky to enjoy with food.
