- Description
- Caol Ila's characteristically briny and seaweed-forward profile defines this 11-year-old, distilled in November 2000 and aged in two bourbon barrels before Signatory's 2012 release. The bourbon maturation keeps the spirit vibrant and accessible, with the distillery's coastal minerality coming through without excessive wood influence. This un-chillfiltered bottling suits those exploring Caol Ila's maritime character in its early maturity.
