Caol Ila 25 Years Old

"Well-balanced contemplative old Caol Ila with smouldering charcoal and maritime notes"

Introduced in 2010, the Caol Ila is fuller-bodied and more controlled than younger expressions, with spicy sea-air aromas and sweet smoky-dry flavours. This is a very welcoming addition to the official range, with a rich, gentle mouthfeel and restrained, coal-esque phenols.
