Caol Ila 30 years old Master of Malt Single Cask Tasting note

By Miguel in Tasting , Recommended , Caol Ila

“ A great whisky that is to Caol Ila what the Master of Malt Bowmore 26 years old is to Bowmore, extravagant, different, but great!”

92
Caol Ila 30 year Master of Malt Single Cask
An unbelievably good single cask Caol Ila bottled by Master of Malt for their Single Cask range.

This was distilled in 1980 and aged in a single refill hogshead before bottling in 2010. A release of just 154 bottles at natural cask strength - non chill-filtered of course!

Extravagant and different whisky but simply awesome on the end! I love it

This dram has a white-like color.

Nose (88): inexistent. sweet, fruit, peat, wood, eucalyptus. First nosing data is innacurate as the previous tasting sheet lacked of this field.

Palate (96): . sweet, floral, fruity, violets, eucalyptus and peat. Bouquet data is innacurate as the previous tasting sheet lacked of this field.

Finish (92): no finish. peat and eucalyptus. 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 30 year Master of Malt Single Cask with 92 points over 100.
