Tasting Notes
This limited edition Caol Ila 14 Years Old Unpeated whisky is a delightful surprise from the renowned Islay distillery known for its heavily peated expressions. Crafted from unpeated malted barley and matured in ex-Sherry casks, it offers a unique and captivating experience. The nose entices with a tantalizing medley of fresh fruits like apple and melon, accented by a zesty lime twist and hints of savory parma ham, damp heather, and the unmistakable coastal essence of kelp. On the palate, it greets with a light and fruity burst, evolving into a lemony delight that lingers pleasantly. The finish is remarkably long and consistent, offering notes of creamy Scotch tablet accompanied by mineral undertones of sand and a peppery kick. With only 5,958 bottles produced, this exceptional single malt is a must-have for whisky enthusiasts seeking a rare and delectable Islay gem.
