Caol Ila Signatory Vintage Single Malt Scotch Whisky 10 Year Old · 1993 Vintage

Colour

Rich amber with coppery sheen and a honeyed, sunlit glow.

Nose

Sea-salted peat, iodine and maritime brine open the nose, carried by a gentle campfire smoke. Sherry whispers through the sweetness—dried fig and orange zest—while vanilla and a kiss of oak lend a polished, coastal warmth that invites a longer, contemplative inhale.

Palate

Oil-slick and mouth-coating, it opens with coastal peat, iodine and a whisper of sea-salt. Sherry-cask sweetness brings dark fig, raisin and cocoa, balanced by tangy citrus zest. Smoke lingers, melding with leather and spice, delivering a long, peppery maritime finish.

Finish

Long, cool coastal smoke lingers, interweaved with sea-salt mineral notes. Sherry-cask depth adds dried fruit sweetness—fig, raisin—with cocoa and spice, while peat threads keep a gentle, medicinal finish that slowly fades to ash and brine.
