Caol Ila12 Year Old DS Tayman Syrah Edition Single Malt Scotch Whisky

DS Tayman is the product of many years’ knowledge, thought and development. With nearly two decades in the alcohol industry, Director of Malts Danny Saltman was keen to bring something new to the market. Driven to develop an exceptional collection of whiskies, Danny has travelled the length of Scotland to match choice Scotch Whiskies with hand-chosen casks.

As DS Tayman only bottles malt whisky aged in single casks, you can be assured that each limited-edition expression has a unique taste profile that cannot be recreated.

Caol Ila distillery, owned by Diageo and found on the Hebridean island of Islay in Scotland is well regarded for its smoky, coastal and bright style.

The DS Tayman series 4 Caol Ila 12 year old single malt whisky was distilled in June 2010 on the island of Islay at the Caol Ila distillery, before being placed in a single refill oak barrel and left to mature for much of it's 12 year maturation period, with a Finish in a single ex-red wine Syrah cask sourced from the Israeli Tulip winery. In June 2022 it was bottled at 46% ABV as part of the 4th Edition releases from DS Tayman. Only 320 bottles were produced.

Nose: "Charred oak and a pinch of saltiness.  Lovely balance with green gauges in the background."

Palate: "Rounded and soft with delicious pomegranate.  Well-integrated peat smoke and toasted oak."

Finish: "Just like the end of a meaty grill with sea salt on the lips and extended malty fruity sweetness."

This release from DS Tayman is certified Kosher.
