An unusual unpeated version of Caol Ila, matured in red wine casks—an interesting combination!

The aroma is soft and light, with notes of nuts and spices, along with hints of cheese and milk, almost devoid of any peaty smokiness.

The finish is medium, leaving behind a nutty and warm spicy sensation.

Caol Ila

Caol Ila is the largest distillery on Islay, established in 1846, and has long served as a key component in blended whiskies due to its efficient and consistent production. Named after the “Sound of Islay,” the distillery overlooks the scenic waters between Islay and Jura. Despite its large scale, Caol Ila remained under the radar for many years until single malt drinkers began to appreciate its subtler charms. Its signature style blends clean, balanced peat smoke with light fruitiness and a gentle maritime character, making it more refined than many of its Islay counterparts.

While much of its output goes into blends like Johnnie Walker, Caol Ila also offers a solid lineup of single malts, including the 12 Year Old and Distillers Edition. The distillery frequently participates in special cask projects and limited releases, demonstrating its versatility and innovation. With the opening of a new visitor center in 2022, Caol Ila has gained greater visibility, inviting whisky lovers to discover the understated power behind this Islay giant.
