Nose
Nicely coastal, with wet sand and oyster, but quite fruity as well. A soft, liqueur-like fruitiness, rather exotic for a Caol Ila. Lemon, honeysuckle, vanilla. A few medicinal notes in the background.
Palate
Lemon at first, then some walnuts and almonds. Apricots. Peat as well, and a few salty notes, which make it sharper than on the nose. Again a nice showcase of older Caol Ila elements.
Finish
Long, with spicy smoke, hints of tea and salty fish.
