Connoisseurs Choice 2001
from Caol Ila Distillery (cask strength)
Passion for single malt Scotch whisky has been at the heart of our family business for four generations. This range is an ever-changing collection of unique perspectives on distilleries’ own bottlings, non-chill-filtered single cask and small batch expressions bottled at cask strength — exceptional one-offs.
Nose
Sweet cured meats initially with fresh lemon zest. Toasted cereal aromas evolve into rich vanilla cream with ripe tropical fruits and hints of milk chocolate.
Taste
Creamy with delicate hints of pepper. Ripe banana and toasted malt flavours combine with sweet apricot. Gentle hints of smoke develop and endure.
Finish
Long and sweet with lingering nuances of bonfire ash.
