Tasting Notes
This limited edition Caol Ila 11 Year Old whisky from the Artist Collective series is a true embodiment of Islay's renowned coastal character. The nose greets you with a captivating blend of briny peat smoke and warm spices, evoking visions of windswept shores and crackling bonfires. On the palate, the savoury seaweed note harmonizes beautifully with the smoky bonfire essence, while drizzles of caramel and woody spice add depth and complexity. The finish lingers with a tantalizing combination of peat and green pepper, leaving a lasting impression of Islay's rugged beauty. Distilled in 2010 and matured in refill sherry butts for 11 years, this cask-strength whisky at 59.1% ABV offers a robust and authentic Islay experience, further enhanced by the artwork of French artist Yanis Khannoussi adorning the label.
