A seductive brininess and waves of oily peat-reek greet the olfactory sense. The palate entry finds a surprisingly buttery-creamy leaning along with the peat-reek; at midpalate the flavor becomes concentrated, oily, malty sweet, and only moderately peaty. Ends on a sweet malty note. Builds from stage to stage, each phase being better than the last. Best Buy.

With a subdued, citric fruitiness and a sweet start, our whisky ends with a lengthy, slightly sour finish. Consider pairing this whisky with the provincial olive dish, tapenade, which helps bring out Caol Ila's peaty and salty notes, while the mix of capers and herbs accentuates the citrus flavors.

Single Malt

Single malt whiskey, a pinnacle of craftsmanship in the world of spirits, is an exclusive and revered expression, meticulously distilled at a single distillery from 100% malted barley. This particular production process imparts a singular and authentic character to the whiskey, capturing the essence of the distillery's location, climate, and traditional methods. As it matures in oak barrels, the single malt develops a complex flavor profile, often featuring a harmonious blend of malt sweetness, fruity notes, and hints of oak, creating a nuanced and sophisticated drinking experience. Renowned for its quality and depth, single malt whiskey is often cherished by enthusiasts seeking the purest expression of a distillery's artistry and the distinct terroir from which it originates. Whether enjoyed neat, with a splash of water, or in a carefully crafted cocktail, single malt whiskey stands as a symbol of tradition, expertise, and the rich heritage of whiskey-making.
