Single Malt Whisky, Scotland / Islay
Equipped with eight wooden washbacks and two stainless steel washbacks where fermentations can last between 55 and 120 hours, Islay’s largest distillery opened its brand-new visitor centre in the summer of 2022. Now at its peak, this version has kept all of the freshness of its prime youth. Developing to the rhythm of a peat that is at times very present and at others more diaphanous, the flavour and aroma palette favours elegance over power, as is typical of Caol Ila’s style.
