Description

Equipped with eight wooden washbacks and two stainless steel washbacks, where fermentation durations range from 55 to 120 hours, the largest distillery on the Isle of Islay unveiled its brand-new visitor center in the summer of 2022.

Nose
Fresh, refined. Scents of frost, freshly cut grass, mint, and salt vie with delicate peat. Upon aeration, ointments and other balms envelop the palate, in the pure Caol Ila style.
Palate
Both lively and delicate. Different from the nose, the palate entry combines white fruit (pear, peach, apple) with peat and smoke, strong spices (clove, nutmeg), vanilla pods, and coconuts. Very maritime, the mid-palate reveals seaweed and aquatic plants (aster).
Finish
Long, intense. Saturated with smoky aromas of ashes, the finish is creamy (milk tart, almond), vanilla, and fruity (Williams pear). Infused with lime and verbena, the aftertaste reveals a dry peat and sprouting barley grains.
