2008 Adelphi Caol Ila 12 Year Old Cask Strength Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml)

Pretty much classic Caol Ila here, disgorged from a refill bourbon hogshead so the distillate will be shining bright. Adelphi describe a powerful combination of crispy dried seaweed, oyster shells, preserved lemons, pickled lemon rind, and tobacco on the nose. On the palate, earthy Mezcal, ashy, briney, sweet and savoury... aromas of a swimming pool changing room. The finish is beautifully balanced with a resounding sweetness. 54.9% Alc./Vol.
