Caol Ila 12 Year Old is produced using malted barley that is peated to about 30-35 ppm, giving it a balanced smoky profile that is less intense than some other Islay whiskies. The whisky is matured in a combination of first-fill and refill American oak bourbon casks, which contribute subtle vanilla and toffee notes. The water used in the production is sourced from Loch Nam Ban, a freshwater loch near the distillery, and the peat is harvested from the local Islay bogs, adding a distinct maritime character to the whisky. These elements combine to create a spirit that is both reflective of its Islay heritage and uniquely characteristic of the Caol Ila distillery.

Description
Caol Ila 12 Year Old is a quintessential expression from the Islay distillery, known for its balance of flavors and approachable complexity. As a part of Caol Ila's core range, this whisky embodies the distillery's signature style, combining the peaty, smoky character typical of Islay whiskies with a delicate sweetness and a light, oily texture. On the nose, it offers hints of fresh herbs, citrus, and a gentle smoke, which evolve on the palate into flavors of sweet malt, vanilla, and a soft, maritime salinity. The finish is long, with lingering smoke and a touch of peppery spice, making it a well-rounded and highly enjoyable dram.
