Caol Ila 12 Year Old is a popular, balanced peated single malt Scotch whisky from Islay, Scotland, known for being a great introduction to peated malts with its mix of sweet fruitiness (citrus, pineapple), medicinal notes, and a distinct, but not overpowering, smoky peat with hints of sea salt, olive oil, and spices, offering a smooth, oily texture and a lingering smoky finish. Bottled at 43% ABV, it's a versatile dram, often described as having a fresh, maritime character.
