Golden Cask Caol Ila 35 Year Old Description
An impressive 35-year-old Caol Ila that has been bottled for the Golden Cask range by the House of Macduff.

Highly limited, just 204 bottles of this single malt have been produced.

Hamish Says
Nose: bonfire smoke, boat yard, (oil and old fishing ropes), and coal tar soap; salt lemon with a honeyed sweetness, some treacle toffee and aniseed balls.
Palate: dried peat, some spices, (white pepper); it is balanced with a fruity sweetness of peaches and over ripe pears and some gentle golden syrup which weaves through it from start to end.
Finish: goes between honey and brown sugar to ash and peat smoke with a peppery touch, giving it a lovely warmth as it trails off...
