Nose
Sieberts Whiskywelt's top-class B-Day dram starts off with a most amazing mix of rich-with-minerals Islay smoke and sweet-as-a-treat strawberry jam. Then more scents and smells join in to provide additional depth and width: cooled-off ash, chimney wood, cocoa powder, cola drop, bramble mush, whipped cream, and dried 'n' spiced potpourri.
Palate
Despite its young age, this well-chosen single cask Caol Ila presents itself wonderfully rounded – offering a dense but also broad-ranging cloud of flavors. The raised ABV produces a pleasant burn; and it elevates the provided flavors to an even higher level. Among others, I taste cooked cherries, nougat bites, gingerbread cookies, demerara sugar, milk coffee, alc-soaked raisins, and burnt rosemary. Plus all kinds of wooden, resiny, and minty notes. And not to forget: lots of soot and fume!
Finish
The continuing aftertaste provides a “Best of” compilation of the many good things we got to smell and taste before … and then some! There's stewed fruits, smouldering wood, (half-)sweet pastry, dark chocolate, moist stones, and dried herbs – clothed in a mid-heavy shroud of peat smoke. Towards the end, one more note becomes present: jellied banana. It remains present on the tongue extra-long and gives the finish additional weight.
