CAOL ILA 15 YO 70 Cl
This 15 year old peat-free Caol Ila is the first to have been aged in American oak and ex-bodega in European oak, which gives a powerful whiskey with a profile typical of the Islay distillery. A whiskey with a light nose with the fruitiness of green apple and orange zest, and a firm and intense mouth that continues on a deep and warm note on the finish.Usually, Caol Ila produces extremely peaty whiskeys . However since 2005, a small batch of Caol Ila has been produced from unpeated malt. Thisparticular batch has a style that is similar to that of Highland whiskeys. Since 2006, we have therefore been able to discover a new bottling of Caol Ila that is not peated every year. This is the 13th in the series.

Tasting Notes
| Nose | Opens with marmalade-laden buttery toast, milk chocolate and fresh orange notes, before red cherry, strawberry and raisin comes through. Lashes of vanilla and a suggestion of spearmint, too. |
| Palate | Leads with more of that creamy chocolate, fruity yoghurt and honey. Peach is in there too, and in with all the oiliness is a pine-like quality. |
| Finish | Yoghurt-covered almonds with some liquorice and, yes, some distant smoke. |
