A Hepburn’s Choice bottling of Caol Ila. Distilled 2010, matured in a single ex-sherry butt, and bottled 2023. Tasting Notes Nose: Opens with wood smoke, a touch of brininess, and a subtle green note, complemented by dried fruits. Taste: Medium-bodied and consistent with the nose, though somewhat subdued. Apples become more prominent, alongside wood smoke. Finish: Medium length, introducing a maritime element with a hint of sea salt.
