- Description
- This 32-year-old Caol Ila from Hunter Laing's 2022 Kinship release shows the distillery's signature peat smoke tempered by four decades of oak maturation. The nose mingles burning embers and rich malt with clove and briny olives, while the palate reveals marmalade, almonds, and soft leather beneath oily peat. At 48.1% abv, this is a masterclass in aged Islay whisky for those seeking complexity without harshness.
