Tasting Notes
Producing WhiskyCast has given me the opportunity to taste some really amazing whiskies, and I’m pleased to share my tasting notes with you here. You can search my entire database of tasting notes from this page, and I hope you’ll find it useful.
Caol Ila 10 Unpeated
Country: Scotland
Region: Islay
Type: Single Malt
Bottler: Distiller
ABV: 65.8%
Score: 90 Points
Distillery manager Billy Stitchell refers to this as “Caol Ila Native,” and it shows the spirit’s natural character. The nose is smooth and sweet with grassy notes and no burn despite the high strength. The taste is spicy and peppery, and fades slowly to reveal notes of dust, rose petals, vanilla, and grass with a nice maltiness. The finish is dry, peppery, and long. It’s hard to find, but well worth seeking out.
