- Description
- Caol Ila's 10-year-old was distilled in 2010, aged in American oak, and bottled at cask strength by Single & Single—just 216 bottles from this Islay single malt. Caol Ila's characteristic iodine and smoke blend with bright citrus and subtle maritime salinity, all lifted by the higher ABV. The texture is viscous and oily with a long, smoky finish. Essential for peat enthusiasts seeking a more approachable alternative to heavily sherried or peated Islays.
