About this deal

Caol Ila was founded to the North of Islay in 1846 by the pleasingly-named Hector Henderson. It is located near Port Askaig and sits in lush, floral surroundings, overlooking the cove and the Paps of southern Jura. The distillery draws its water from Loch Nam Ban, whose waters travel through limestone and peat before reaching their beneficiary, Caol Ila. Caol Ila 14 yo 2005/2019 (54.5%, Gordon & MacPhail, Connoisseurs Choice for 20th Anniversary of The Whisky Exchange, refill sherry hogshead, cask #19/51, 142 bottles) - 230120 - by Angus - 210819 I would have loved to try this at cask strength, or at least at 46%. There are so many elements which have left their traces, but which don’t present themselves fully due to the low strength. In total, I am intrigued but left wanting more. Bowmore 18– A slightly less sophisticated whisky that has a lot of the same flavor notes and a better price per bottle.

Caol Ila 9 yo 2009/2020 (57.9%, Artful Dodger Whisky Collective, bourbon hogshead, cask #319291) - 151220
