Caol Ila 1981 / 40 Year Old / Private Collection Islay Whisky

Gordon & MacPhail's 1981 Caol Ila aged 40 years in refill wood offers a portrait of Islay whisky from a foundational era, bottled at 58.4% abv. Bright citrus, leather, coal embers, and menthol create a complex profile where the distillery's peat smoke has integrated seamlessly with decades of oak influence. This is a whisky for experienced collectors seeking vintage character and remarkable longevity.
