Caol Ila's November 2010 distillation underwent an unusual maturation: refill hogsheads followed by 16 months in fresh sherry butt, married in June 2022 at cask strength 56.8% ABV. The sherry finish amplifies fruity notes—dried stone fruit and dark berries—while the distillery's peaty, briny character remains firmly in control, creating a rare balance of richness and smoke. Cask strength intensity rewards neat drinking or careful dilution. For those seeking Islay peat with unexpected sherry complexity.
