What an absolute treat! I love the combination of pungent salt, oil, and tart citrus. When a Caol Ila comes together it borders on greatness. I adore all the elements in this glass and the finish was absolutely brilliant. I think the nose might have been the highpoint, it had so much complexity, so many strong mental images and memories associated with it.
