Caol Ila MOCH is an elegant Islay single malt Scotch whisky, bottled at 43% in a 0.7-litre bottle. The Gaelic word ‘Moch’ means ‘dawn’ and reflects the smoother, more approachable style of this special bottling. Compared to the classic Caol Ila whiskies, the focus here is not on intense smokiness, but on a harmonious blend of mild peaty smoke, fruitiness and sweetness. The historic Caol Ila Distillery, situated on the east coast of Islay, is renowned for its finely balanced, maritime single malts. With the MOCH, the distillery presents a particularly smooth interpretation of its characteristic house style, offering an ideal introduction to the world of smoky Islay whiskies.

The Caol Ila MOCH impresses with its balanced and pleasantly approachable character. The subtle peat smoke is accompanied by a delicate sweetness and fresh, spicy notes, creating a harmonious overall profile. This elegant balance makes the Caol Ila MOCH an attractive choice for both newcomers and experienced connoisseurs of smoky single malt Scotch whiskies.
