- Description
- Caol Ila's peaty character is refined here through a dual maturation: 13 years in bourbon barrel followed by over two years in a refill red wine barrique, creating a maritime Islay profile with subtle fruit and wine influence. Distilled in 2008, this single cask (313320) from Dramfool's inaugural Middle Cut collection sits at the intersection of smoke and elegant complexity.
