Caol Ila Moch is a crisp, assertive, and bright Islay single malt whisky from a remote distillery on Scotland's most famous whisky island. Gaelic for "dawn", Moch is a smoky, unreduced whisky that showcases Caol Ila's trademark smoky-antiseptic character with a perfect balance of sweet and salty notes and balancing acidity. This is the first single malt from Caol Ila to be selected entirely on the basis of its taste, rather than age, cask wood, strength, or finish, making it a unique expression that captures the pure essence of the distillery's character.
