Caol Ila Distillery
Built in 1846, Caol Ila is the largest of the eight working distilleries on the island of Islay (situated off the west coast of Scotland), with a production capacity of 3 million litres per year.  In the classic Islay style, Caol Ila is made predominantly with peated malt and the resulting phenols have a big influence on the final flavour of the whisky, as does the salty coastal air that the casks ‘breathe’ during maturation.  One of the most approachable Islay malts.

Tasting Notes:

Tasting Notes by TF

A pungent whiff of oily peat on the nose.  The palate is medium-bodied with a medicinal, seaweedy character accompanying the smoky peat, spices, brine and a peppery finish.
