Moch is Gaelic for "dawn", a feeling that this whisky certainly evokes
in us with his light, airy but warm flavors and aromas. Colour : Light gold

Smell : Salty, smoky and soft fruit

Taste : Sweet, peaty and smoky aftertaste

This malt is a lot more balanced and a lot more rounded than the twelve year old.This is almost as good as my favorite whisky of all time Lagavulin 16 years old.

Color

Pale straw

Nose

A superb nose, the peat and smokiness is spot on, prickly and wet grass. I used to workwith horses and horses have a unique smell and i could smell it in this malt very clearly,strange.

Taste

The taste is top draw, and well balanced.Fishermans friend(that's a cough sweet by the way)woody oily and spicey.

Finish

A tremendous finish which is long woody and salty.

Comments

Color

Pale straw

Nose

Typicky zástupce nasládle rašelinovych whisky. Sláma, citrusy, grepová slupka, rašelina. Vůně je vyrazná, trochu laková. (84 b)

Taste

Nasládlá, kouřová, středně plná chuť. Citrusově rašelinová, nakouřená dochuť, která pomalu vysychá, úplně nakonec popel. (84 b)

Finish

Comments

Slušny, pohodovy kousek z Islay.Stylově podobné whisky jsou například Bunnahabhain Cruach-Mhona, Compass Box Peat Monster, nebo BenRiach 12y Herodotus Fumosus.

nice and gentle, a fresh breeze in a glas- good enjoyable dram for youre buck

I\\\'d rather have a full bottle in front of me, than a full frontal lobotomy.

"Taking its name from the Gaelic for `dawnâ€�, Moch is
a wonderful newcomer from Caol Ila and is a must-try for fans of this
outstanding distillery. Lighter in style than the standard 12yo
expression, Moch is a fantastic easy-drinking dram."

Remember it\'s maturity that makes whisky great! That\'s why I Love The Glenrothes!
