Caol Ila 12 Year

Very smoky, spicy at the end in the throat

Interesting unique on the nose, with a palette of vanilla and warm summer night. First taste is burning in the mouth, this gets more nuanced with repetition. Afterwards the approachable peaty flavour comes through

Smokey, spicy, rich

One of the best. Enjoyable slight peat, oily and tangy. Always buy this if it's available.

Lots of online reviews sell this short. Maybe is not terribly complex but it’s very good. Strong but not overpowering peat flavor. Mellows out after a month or so.
