Caol Ila Moch
Caol Ila Moch is a softer, brighter take on Islay peat from the legendary coastal distillery. Named after the Gaelic word for “dawn”, this approachable single malt was selected purely for flavour rather than age or cask specification. It has gentle smoke with creamy sweetness and fresh citrus character.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Lemon sherbet and apple crumble topping with custard. Dry grass and not a hint of smoke.
Palate
Sweet lemon meringue pie and soft, very soft mouthfeel. The peat hits a third of the way in but it's restrained; soothing wood smoke rather than burning tyres, and it retains a sweetness throughout.
Finish
Soft drying smoke.
Overall
A tasty, easy drinking Islay that's pulled back on peat but not on flavour.
