Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky, 40% ABV
Caol Ila 12 Years Old is an elegant, 43% ABV Islay Single Malt known for its light-to-medium body, balancing gentle peat smoke with fresh, maritime, and citrus notes. Often considered a "gateway" Islay whisky, it features a pale straw color and a clean,, approachable character rather than intense, heavy medicinal smoke.
