Caol Ila Distillers Edition 2022 Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky 700ml

Since 1997, the Distillers Editions have been an annual release of limited quantities, each very much true to its origins yet possessing a rich depth, complexity and nuance of flavour not found in the regular release. This excellent Caol Ila whisky has been firstly matured in Refill American and European Oak casks. With the second maturation finished in Moscatel-seasoned, re- charred American Oak with heavily recharred new AO ends.

This golden edition of Caol Ila is brilliant, crisp and refined. The deep, sweet and smoky flavour profile reflects the intense, saturated colours of late afternoon sunshine after a storm has passed.

Tasting Notes:

Appearance: Pale gold with green lights. Fine beading. Good viscosity.

Body: Medium.

Nose: Forward and immediately smoky-spicy, opening up to reveal Caol Ila’s trademark fresh clean notes. Once they appear, it’s as if someone has just put the bonfire out by throwing water on it. There is fruit too, subdued by comparison.

Palate: Firm and oily-smooth in texture, the taste sweet and mouth coating to start, with a full smoky attack on the palate, and intensely flavourful in nature. This concentrated smokiness is well balanced by sweetness, body and light-wood spice.

Finish: Long, smoky and robust; delightfully palate warming and spicy.
