Palate: Oily with salted meats, warm pineapple, ginger sponge and other winter spices.
Finish: Drying finish with herbal notes and bitter dark chocolate.
Ed's tasting notes
Colour: Natural colour, dark amber or burnished gold.
Nose: Smoke from oak logs burning in the brick hearth of a country pub. Salted caramel and apple chutney. The alcohol is well integrated.
Palate: Medium to full mouthfeel, great texture. Smoked honey-glazed ham, on a sea-sprayed beach. Stewed apple with blackberries. Dry roasted nuts and almonds, with a touch of wood spice.
Finish: Medium length. Ginger and chocolate, with Islay smoke. A little bright spice leaves the palate ready for another sip.
Overall: A really yummy dram - if you're a Caol Ila fan, you'll love this.
