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
Soft smoky aromas give way to sweet vanilla with bursts of grapefruit. Hints of coconut develop alongside rich cured meat, transforming into toasted walnuts.
Taste
Mouth-warming spice leads to creamy toffee and malted cereal. Sweet dried fruit flavours develop alongside maple-cured bacon with a subtle hint of smoke.
Finish
Gentle wisps of smoke, complemented by tart citrus fruit lingers on the finish.
