Connoisseurs Choice 2002
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 toasted cereal aromas complement rich caramelised banana and lemon peel. Green apple comes to the fore with a touch of vanilla and subtle wisps of smoke.
Taste
Fresh melon, banana, and apple flavours evolve into black pepper and hints of juicy pear. Charred oak and peat smoke combine with a trace of sea salt.
Finish
Citrus with a sea salt edge combines with plenty of peat smoke for a lingering finish.
