Classic Malts Collection - Caol Ila, Clynelish, Talisker, 3 x 20cl, 43% ABV.
A nice gift set featuring 3 of Diageo's Classic Malts from Caol Ila, Clynelish, Talisker.
Caol Ila 12-Year-Old - 43% vol Pale straw; the light, fruity nose fresh and appetizing, with a wisp of smoke, almonds, and yes, oilskins! Firm, smooth, and light-bodied. Sweet at first, then fragrantly smoky and lightly salty in a balanced taste, smoothly leading on to a lingering, sweet-smoky finish that's often likened to the dying embers of a beach bonfire. Sublime smoke.
Talisker 10-Year-Old - 46% vol Brilliant gold; powerful peat-smoke on the nose, with a seawater salty-sweetness. Full-bodied. Rich, dried-fruit sweetness and clouds of smoke on the palate, with strong barley-malt flavours. Smoky-sweet and powerful, with an explosion of pepper at the back of the mouth, followed by a huge, long, warming and peppery finish. Sweet thunder.
Clynelish 14-Year-Old - 45.8% vol Yellow gold; the sweet, light, waxy nose has a faint floral fragrance that grows to suggest scented candle wax, dried flowers on the beach, and brown sugar. Firm, light to medium-bodied. Smooth and creamy mouthfeel, with maritime notes always present. Salty-dry, with an attractive, crisp sea-air finish. Deliciously drinkable.
