Caol Ila 13 Year Old Smoky With Peat (Discovery)
Sourced from Caol Ila Distillery, this 13-year-old single malt Scotch whisky has been expertly matured by Gordon & MacPhail as part of their Discovery range. Bottled at 43% ABV, it showcases the quintessential smoky character of Islay whiskies. The Discovery series highlights the bold flavour profiles of renowned distilleries, making this Caol Ila a perfect example of the island’s rich heritage.
Tasting Note by Gordon & MacPhail:
Nose: Sweet and savoury: dry-cured meats glazed with luscious apricot jam combines with rich vanilla notes. Flashes of softly swirling peat smoke complement the delicious sweetness.
Palate: Bursting with juicy tropical fruit – pineapple, kiwi, and banana – brushed softly with icing sugar. Light touches of malt and vibrant lemon peel balance the sweetness.
Finish: Long and luxurious with hints of sweet marshmallow toasting over gently smouldering bonfire embers.
