Caol Ila Connoisseurs Choice Single Malt Scotch Whisky 16 Year Old · 2002 Vintage

Colour

Golden amber with coppery depth and sunlit bronze highlights.

Nose

Smoky bacon mingles with vanilla and banana, brightened by citrus zest. Tropical fruits emerge beneath, while a honey-glazed cured-meat nuance adds savory depth to the aroma, with peat smoke curling along the edges.

Palate

On the palate, smoky bacon and vanilla mingle with banana and citrus, while tropical fruit notes echo honey-glazed cured meat. Peat smoke builds through the mid-palate and lingers into a warm, bonfire ember finish.

Finish

Peat smoke lingers into a long bonfire ember finish, warm and smoky with a quiet, enduring glow.
