About this whiskey

Caol Ila 12 Year shows the lighter, fresher side of peated Islay whisky.

The nose is fresh and appetising, with subdued citric fruit and a trace of olive oil. It drinks well at natural strength: a sweet start, light fragrant smokiness and a smooth mouthfeel, ending in sweet smokiness on a lingering, slightly sour finish.

from the producer

Caol Ila was founded on Islay in 1846, near Port Askaig overlooking the Sound of Islay. Rebuilt in the early 1970s, it is the largest distillery on the island and a key part of many blends, with a lighter, fresher peated style.
