Product description

Product description
The 12-year-old Caol Ila belongs to the so-called 'Classic Malts of Scotland'. This malt shimmers pure and white-golden. Tingly fresh salt aromas from the sea merge with the peaty smokiness of the island. Unmistakably an Islay malt despite its initial sweetness. Pleasant bite!
