This one is unique. The moscatel finish definitely reduces the typical Caol Ila peat explosion, but at the same time seems to heighten the maritime saltiness. This is a conversation starter. Bring it out when you want to surprise your guest with something different. Posted By: TD, Prague

I completely agree with TD here, the peat is subdued and fades into smokey spice similar to a Lagavulin but with more depth. Posted By: mattme, Belgium/California

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.
