So what is the whisky like then? Well it's very light in colour, not as light as an Ardbeg but much lighter than say a Talisker or Highland Park. When you take a whiff of the whisky you immediately get that peat smoke smell wafting up into your nostrils, then there are also notes of spice. When you take a sip you notice how smooth the whisky is, this i...morePrice Comparison for Caol Ila 12 Year Old Whisky
