Caol Ila 1996 Cask #19313 Feis lle 2009 Single Malt Scotch Whisky | 700ML Tasting Notes
Nose: A very interesting, spicy and rather herbal nose for a Caol Ila. Hints of aniseed, taragon, maybe even turmeric, alongside seaweed, buttery toffee, citrus, manuka honey and smoke on sea air.
Palate: Stem ginger, toffee, salinity and sweet smoke. Old ropes, salty butter, freshly cut hay and pepper.
Finish: Good length with notes of malt, toffee apple, spices and a little mustard powder!
Distillery Information
Caol Ila was founded to the North of Islay in 1846 by the pleasingly-named Hector Henderson. It is located near Port Askaig and sits in lush, floral surroundings, overlooking the cove and the Paps of southern Jura. The distillery draws its water from Loch Nam Ban, whose waters travel through limestone and peat before reaching their beneficiary, Caol Ila.
