Nose: Woody, BBQ pork, crackling, salt/saline Palate: Wood, wet/damp peat, seaweed, toasted oats, smoky embers Finish: Medium long finish. Damp peat, mint/menthol, sweet, wood chips, salt and saline, seaweed. This is a 5 year old Caol Ila. A simple, gentle and smoky whisky. This is a wee cracker of a Caol Ila. OK, it's one dimensional, but undoubtedly a very drinkable, gently peaty dram. I find I keep going back to this one, more so than the standard 12y/o Caol Ila.
