hs305 scored this whisky 90 points

[September, 2003] I had this dram during a MaRa "Islay" tasting at Limburg. In my old rating system (ten scales that translate into WB points: 50
- 66 - 75 - 80 - 82,5 - 85 - 87,5 - 90 - 92,5 - 95) I scored it 90. My notes state a very fine sherry profile that demands a fair share of water to open up. After that it offers the typical smoked bacon flavour of old Caol Ila.
Back in 2003 I was not a big Caol Ila fan (what changed in the meantime) so most probably I would score this profile significantly higher today...
