          Nice pressie

          Pronounced kal-eela (without reverting to phonetics)

          I think the 12yo is generally considered the best of the range

          Quite light for an Islay malt

          Im not the biggest fan of whisky so maybe Flo can give you in depth

              Where I can find cat's eye buttons?

              I need one black 11-12mm dia, but the color is so unique (black, but when you look at it closely, it's very dark burgundy). These buttons are smooth except the cat's eye.

              If I can't get right one, I need to change all, and then similar buttons to IH workshirt buttons are OK.
              I can take a dozen or two if they are not costing an arm and a leg.

                Hi Seul.

                I love Caol ila, it's a realitvely mild islay whisky, peaty, but not too strong. A bit oily and waxy and a bit like the stuff the make gin out of, juniper?!) . i got three versions at home, that says it all. the 12 YO is the standard Version which is perfect for beginners, then there's also a cask strength, an 18 YO and an unpeated version. But you got a nice bottle there, enjoy it. Maybe add a drop of water and see how the peatsmoke starts to come up…

                The finish is not as long as on a Arbeg, Lagavulin or the like and the body is medium - light.

                I love to drink Coal Ila after a day at the sea or in winter to get warm. So not right now...

                    nice rewiev indeed, but me thinks Max has a problem. He's got whisky in stock…. ??? That ain't right. They might evolve taste of glass if stored too long  😉

                      I only got a problem with filling up my whisky cupboard fast enough 😉

                      Speaking of the cupboard - actual state here, including my 3 Caol Ilas:

                              Wow, generally I'm not the biggest Fan of Ben Nevis, but have you got details? I assume it's an independent bottling?

                                  That's a very interesting bottle! 1984 is my birthyear, and I like sherry matured whisky. But I fear I bought too much lately…must think about it, ok?
