Caol Ila 9 Year Old (cask 302611) - Dràm Mòr

Caol Ila's characteristic maritime peat and briny character shine through in this 9-year-old, distilled in 2015 and matured in ex-bourbon before a finishing period in French oak oloroso sherry. The young spirit's smoky intensity is softened by oloroso's dried fruit and subtle sweetness, creating a balance between Islay's coastal spice and wine-cask depth. Cask strength bottling preserves the layered texture and long, smoky finish. This is ideal for those seeking Islay character without excessive age, or as a daily dram with enough complexity to reward attention.
