The Single Malts of Scotland 12 Years Old 2010 Caol Ila Reserve Casks Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky 750ml

Nose : Rich BBQ smoked cherries poached in wine. Tropical fruit juice cuts through peppery notes of Cinnamon and sticky caramel – combining to create depth of flavour through layers of smoke. Palate : BBQ smoke turns more to bonfire with driftwood and hints of sea air. Charred mackerel served with a squeeze of lemon and a touch of spice is contrasted against Bramble tea. A luscious spoonful of marmalade hides in the background. Finish: Lovely and long. Fruit fades to leave a more floral note – rose petal with a hint of crystallised ginger.
