Caol Ila 18 years old of Islay Collection Tasting note

By Miguel at 2010 Dec,02 in Tasting , Caol Ila

Caol Ila 18 Year Old Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky

Extra ageing has calmed the impact of the phenols, with the peat arriving on the palate late, and tempered by smooth oak. A very mellow, mature Islay malt.

This dram has a white-like color.

Nose (84): inexistent. fruity, melon, a little peat, malt sweetness,a bit wood and salt. First nosing data is innacurate as the previous tasting sheet lacked of this field.

Palate (80): . sweet and fruity, pears. Bouquet data is innacurate as the previous tasting sheet lacked of this field.

Finish (84): no finish. long, peaty and hot. Finish length is innacurate as the previous tasting sheet lacked of this field.

So based on other whiskies I have already tasted I rate this Caol Ila 18 Year Old Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky with 83 points over 100.
