Caol Ila

Caol Ila Moch Single Malt Scotch Whisky, 70cl

Check availability with your local retailer

Gaelic for dawn, Moch is a crisp, assertive and bright Caol Ila. A smoky, single malt from a remote distillery on Scotland’s most famous Whisky Island Islay. Unreduced, sweet and salty with a balancing acidity, Caol Ila’s trademark smoky-antiseptic character is here. Best enjoyed over ice or with a bit of water. Or serve it neat. The first single malt from Caol Ila to be selected entirely on the basis of its taste, rather than age, cask wood, strength or finish. Makes the perfect gift for those looking to experience the magic world of peaty whiskies.

Serving Suggestion: Best enjoyed over ice or with a bit of water. Or serve it neat.

"It shows a saline, seashell-like freshness, light smoke. and a pleasant mix of salami and grassiness. The palate is clean and intense with a continuation of that oyster liquor character. Great in a smoky Highball."

Dave Broom, Whisky Advocate Spring 2012
