Peat Smoke Peat Smoke Sweet Sweet Fruit Fruit
Variety Single Malt Whisky
Aroma Dry with a medicinal note. The peat smoke is immediately dominant and harmonises well with sweet fruits and the creaminess typical of Caol Ila.
Taste The firm body is surprisingly fresh and soft. The Taste shines with honey and exotic pine cones. Fine smoke lies over everything.
Finish Medium length with aromatic smoke that leads into a sweet dry, flattering aftertaste.

Product description

Product description
Like all Caol Ila Single Malts, the 25-year-old is lighter and finer than one would expect from an Islay Malt. The 25-year-old flows deeply golden and oily into the nosing glass. Its sweet-spicy aroma with notes of dried fruit and seafood caresses the nose and continues on the palate as a sweet-fruity Taste event with balancing bitter tones and fine malty smokiness.

    Aroma: Citrus Maritime Notes Fruit Peat Smoke Bonfire Smoke

    Geschmack: Sweet Tropical Fruit Spices

    Abgang: Oak Peat Smoke Herb Herbs Salt

    Kommentar: Zitrusfrüchte, Meer und Lagerfeuer ist das erste was man in der Nase hat.
    Süße und Früchte im Mund, bevor dann Eiche Rauch und ein sehr langer maritimer Abgang folgen. Ein toller Standard mit Alter .

    Ich liebe diese schöne Torfnase!
    Ja, da ist leicht Rauch, aber nicht dreckig, sondern sehr angenehm und aromatisch.
    Hat auch fruchtige Aromen im Hintergrund.

    Geschmacklich leicht, sehr leicht sogar.
    Der Rauch etwas intensiver.
    Er wirkt alt und rund.

    Sehr schön!

    90/100 Sicherlich ein Whisky der gehobenen Klasse. Perfekt zum Genießen und Entspannen. Wer es jedoch facettenreich und spannend mag, wird hier nicht den gewünschten Clou finden.
    Aroma: süßlich-phenolisch, Holzfeuer, Honig, Wachs
    Geschmack: weich, süßlich, dann pfeffrig - etwas Wasser intensiviert die Geschmackseindrücke
    Abgang: eher trockener, süßlicher Rauch, leicht fruchtig, elegant
