An Islay classic that we will never get enough of. Caol Ila 12 year old is the entry-level bottling from the Caol Ila distillery, launched in June of 2002. Caol Ila is the largest of the Islay distilleries by output and so it’s a favourite of brands, independent bottlers, and blends like Johnnie Walker.
Caol Ila 12 Year Old appeals to connoisseurs while also making the perfect entry to the world of peated whisky for newcomers, with its beautifully measured and mellow smokiness and a rich array of seaside flavours. It’s a serial award-winner that works great in cocktails (we recommend a smoky Highball), as well as being a good whisky to pair with salty and savoury foods.
Fresh, herbal. Rubbed peppermint leaves, stemmy, damp grass, smoky. Oily, cigar leaves, smoked ham, hickory. Lemon peels at the harbour.
Good body, oily, tar, elegant smoke. Hints of boiled sweets.
Long, peppery, spicy warmth, smoke.
One of the benchmark drams everyone always has to keep to hand.Once you start ,it's a challenge to put the bottle back.The ashy finish is to die for
This is a regular of mine and cannot be faulted wonderfully smoky and with so much else going on. Good price ? so is the one I have a dram of leaving the expensive one for special occasions.
This is a very nice Islay,not as medicinal as some but still you can tell it is an Islay straight from the start.This is a bargain at the price,and repeated tastes you can really appreciate the subtle fruity undertones amidst the smoky brine.
I've had several bottles of this one over the years. It is always great. From the first sip it's earthy and smooth. Buttery finish. Until the end. Highly recommend.
In my opinion it is one of the best I have drunk,and I have had many hundreds of whiskeys.
