The ultimate Islay malt, Caol Ila is considered by experts to be the perfect entry point into the world of peaty malt whiskies and a reference for connoisseurs of Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky the world over. Fresh, sweetly fruity and smooth-bodied, Caol Ila 12 year old is the colour of pale straw, with a delicate balance of tastes. Pale straw colour. Smooth, pleasant mouth-feel: firm with a light to medium body. Subdued, citric fruitiness on the nose; a whiff of bath oil and dentist's mouthwash. A fresh and appetising nose, with little or no trace of smoke. A little water raises almond oil and old fashioned oilskins; still a fresh fruitiness, a trace of olive oil, and after a while potpourri or scented hand-soap. Drinks well at natural strength; sweet start; pleasant, light fragrant smokiness and a lengthy finish. Smooth, pleasant mouth-feel; with water light acidity, some salt and still the sweeter notes. A complex balance of primary tastes. Sweet smokiness in the lingering, slightly sour finish.

Islay is a small island located off the west coast of Scotland, known for its peaty and smoky single malt whiskies. The island has a long history of whisky production, dating back to the early 18th century. The unique character of Islay whisky is attributed to the island's peat bogs, which are used to dry the malted barley, giving the whisky its distinctive smoky flavor.

Islay is home to eight working distilleries, each with its own unique style and character. Ardbeg, Laphroaig, and Lagavulin are among the most well-known and highly regarded distilleries on the island, producing rich, complex whiskies with notes of smoke, seaweed, and brine. Bowmore, Bruichladdich, Caol Ila, Kilchoman, and Bunnahabhain are also popular distilleries on the island, each with its own distinct style and flavor profile.

In addition to whisky, Islay is also known for its gin production. The Botanist, produced by Bruichladdich distillery, is a popular gin made with 22 botanicals, many of which are native to the island. The gin has a complex, herbaceous flavor profile, with notes of juniper, citrus, and wildflowers.

Overall, Islay is a must-visit destination for whisky and gin enthusiasts, offering a unique and diverse range of spirits that are deeply rooted in the island's history and culture.
