The first nose is very medicinal, a bit unusual for a Caol Ila. But very soon fruity smells develope giving it a nice freshness on a background of peaty smoke. The nose is a bit tingling.
In the palate, the first thing one denote si a delicate peaty smoke, followed by woody hints and it further developes on chocolate notes. A very nicely complex mouth.
The lingering finish is somewhere beteen the malt and the chocolate, with a slight bitterness, nutty hints. A very high level bottle.
