Arthur Motley
80- Nose
- Lime, vanilla ice cream flecked with peat. Cold salty butter. With water there is stable hay, peat-flavoured Shredded Wheat.
- Palate
- Pleasant buttery texture and a good balance between sweet and savoury barbecue character.
- Finish
- Coal tar.
- Comment
- Very good, but better without water. Is Caol Ila the most consistent distillery ever? So many indies, so few duff drams.
Owen Barstow
85- Nose
- Clean. Fresh. Pine resin notes complement a drying, adolescent, acetic background. Icing sugar.
- Palate
- Woody. Faintly astringent. Fresh. New sawdust. Citrus and pine resin.
- Finish
- Medium. Again, piney, but with a faint trace of peppermint.
- Comment
- Nice interplay of youthful flavours. Puts me in mind of a popular late 1980s aftershave. (Good pairing for a Cohiba Robusto).
