- Description
- The Whisky Agency's 2007 Caol Ila, bottled at 8 years old and cask strength (53.7% abv), captures the distillery in its youth from a single ex-bourbon hogshead. Bright lemon cuts through the peat smoke with clarity, while the youth allows the spirit's raw character to dominate the oak. This energetic, uncompromising dram suits those who prefer young Islay whisky's sharp, unapologetic intensity.
