Caol Ila 12 Year

Nose: Starts nicely with delicate smoked ham and citrus notes. Hints of cigar leaves. Fresh with smoke! Nose is the best part. Taste: Almost full. Oily with tar and delicate smoke. Sweet honey. Finish: Finish is rather long but for my taste, lacking some smoke. Even though the smoke is there. Peppery and sweet. Balance: Nice peated whisky, an okay dram from Islay. Smoke in a smooth and delicate way. Subtle and sweet side of Islay.
