“Because you can't buy happiness... but you can buy whisky and that's pretty much the same thing”

Tasting Caol Ila 18 years old

By Miguel in Tasting , Caol Ila

“Good Caol Ila whisky but if you ask me I prefer the 12 years old.”

88
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 fino-like color.

Nose (89): more than average. peat, salt, vanilla, citrus, spices.

Palate (89): smooth, powerful. peat, honey, salt, citrus, floral, spices, pepper, wood.

Finish (87): average. peat, honey, citrus.

So based on other whiskies I have already tasted I rate this Caol Ila 18 Year Old Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky with 88 points over 100.
