Anyone who loves smokey blends but not Caol Ila doesn't know what they're drinking. This whisky has been peat smoking blends for more of it's life than it's been releasing their own single malt varieties. Nose is vegetal peat smokey, super wild flower honey, light floral notes, light fruit and a touch of citrus almost key lime. Palate is just sweet and easy, no harshness, no alcohol, just a savory meaty note from the peat smoke, the fresh fruit and lots of honey like caramel and honey mixed some wood notes hiding way in back. Finish is medium long with the honey and sweet notes ramping up slightly along with the smoke and oaky wood notes. The sweet syrupy note and the oak stay the longest. If this was 10-15 cheaper it would be 4.25 or 4.5 it's that good.
