Connoisseurs Choice 2005
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 smoke aromas are accompanied by cured meat and subtle ginger spice. Sweet orange marmalade develops alongside gentle vanilla and a hint of brazil nut.
Taste
Smooth and light golden syrup complements ripe green apple and intense malted biscuit. An undertone of cocoa powder develops, leading to a sweet toffee edge.
Finish
Long, lingering smoke with dark chocolate and zesty lemon.
