- Description
- Caol Ila's signature peaty character is evident in this 10-year-old from 2009, bottled by Berry Bros. & Rudd at natural colour and strength. Classic Islay smoke combines with briny maritime notes and subtle citrus undertones, creating a balanced expression that shows the distillery's ability to express peat without overwhelming other dimensions. The mouthfeel is crisp and engaging, with smoke lingering into a medium finish. A benchmark Caol Ila for everyday appreciation.
