A remarkably consistent producer, Caol Ila is one of Islay's most reliable distilleries. This official bottling is part of Diageo's Distiller's Edition series, which sees their iconic malts undergo secondary maturation. For Caol Ila this is a finishing period in re-charred American oak casks that previously held Moscatel, contributing spice to the distillery's signature sweet smoke.

Tasting Notes

Official Tasting Notes

Nose –  Forward and immediately smoky-spicy, opening up to reveal Caol Ila’s trademark fresh clean notes. Once they appear, it’s as if someone has just put the bonfire out by throwing water on it. There is fruit too, subdued by comparison.

Palate –  Firm and oily-smooth in texture, the taste sweet and mouth coating to start, with a full smoky attack on the palate, and intensely flavourful in nature. This concentrated smokiness is well balanced by sweetness, body and light-wood spice.

Finish –  Long, smoky and robust; delightfully palate warming and spicy.
