- Description
- Caol Ila distilled in 2007 and aged for 16 years in a single first-fill oloroso sherry butt, Signatory's bottling delivers 682 bottles of Islay peat filtered through rich Spanish oak. The combination of maritime smoke and deep sherry influence represents a deliberate counterpoint to the distillery's more restrained official releases.
