Caol Ila
Tasting Notes
Caol Ila's 13 Year Old 2007 - Equinox & Solstice Autumn 2021 Edition is a delightful Islay single malt whisky that captivates the senses with its harmonious blend of smoky and fruity notes. On the nose, it entices with the comforting aroma of oat cakes, accompanied by a subtle hint of flint and a delicate waft of smoke. The palate is a delightful dance of flavors, with smoke taking the lead but never overpowering, complemented by the sweetness of barley, the floral notes of heather honey, and the juicy richness of stewed apples. The finish lingers with a earthy, baked quality, punctuated by a prickle of peppery spice that leaves a lasting impression. This independently bottled expression, matured for 13 years in hogshead casks and bottled at 48.5% ABV, offers a captivating journey through the smoky and creamy realms of Caol Ila's exceptional character.
