Caol Ila Feis Ile Bottling 2013, 56.5%
Price: ● Issue: Fall 2013 ● Reviewer: Dave Broom ● Category: Single Malt Scotch
Although aged in refill, then active hoggies, and finally sherry, there's more smoke
than oak here, a smoke like the aroma of a fire clinging to a tweed jacket. A
note akin to wilting spinach gives way to more conventional strawberries and
cream, but always mixed with seashore breezes. This is Caol Ila in deep and
bold mood with green fig, banana, and a sweet center. Water gives greater
integration. You might (just) be able to get this. Do it. (distillery only) £99
