Reviewed December 2, 2019 (edited October 2, 2020)smokey roasted bbq aroma, smokey, 3.75 smokey roast, slight bitterness and lacks the complexity in taste, but if you want a smokey hit this is the one for you, caol ila is very very distinct 2.25 aromatic smoke 2.75 2.75 Nosing. Liken to a takeaway barbecue meat in the car, smooth and not overwhelmingly strong. But leaves you salivating for more. The taste though, do not leave you disappointed. Flavour: slight spiciness that does not burn, fruity apple, non-oily whisky. Taste lingers off soon as you swallow Finish: nice peaty finish -
