Old, naked Caol Ila highlighted by bright apples, wet pebbles and seashells. There's a very distant smoke with touches of old oak and hemp ropes, underpinned by the gentle sweetness of cotton candy and mush banana. Balanced beyond belief.

Thick and mouth-coating, this old Caol Ila shows its high abv but never becomes too aggressive. A pinch of white pepper and very salty with whispers of lemon zest, agave and dried hops, but also touches of bonfire smoke and olive brine.

Lingering spices, sweet peat and soft minerals. Long.
