Review and Tasting


Sampled on 22/12/2022

Appearance:

Clear, golden amber.

Aroma:

Smoking oak embers, tar, toasty oak and roast chestnuts with blackcurrant boiled sweets (hard candy) and nutty chocolate.

Taste:

Initially sweet before spirituous spice, peat-smoked oak and salinity kick in. I'm not sure this Caisteal Chamuis benefits from water but a splash amplifies barley notes and lets zesty orange emerge.

Aftertaste:

Long, smoky and pleasingly medicinal.

Overall:

If you like a full-on peaty malt then this 12-year-old Caisteal Chamuis could be just what you're looking for. Attractively priced and bristling with character.
