Tasting Notes

Producing WhiskyCast has given me the opportunity to taste some really amazing whiskies, and I’m pleased to share my tasting notes with you here. You can search my entire database of tasting notes from this page, and I hope you’ll find it useful.

Caol Ila 28 1981 Vintage

This was distilled in 1981 and matured in a refill hogshead. The nose is peaty and phenolic with oak, vanilla, and cocoa notes. The taste is smoky with charred oak, honey, vanilla, and dark chocolate, and the finish is long and smoky with a touch of honey.
