Adelphi Selections Caol Ila 12yr Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky

Adelphi Selections Caol Ila 12yr Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky - 2008

Item # 45658

Wow it has been a while since we were reminded by how magical malts from this distillery could be. Whisky from Caol Ila is always good and reliable, but that could sometimes mean they are also forgettable. One thing that is certain is there is no forgetting this whisky once you taste it. Drawn from spirit distilled in 2008 and aged for 12yrs exclusively in a sole first fill oloroso sherry Hogshead prior to being bottled at a natural cask strength. This is big, powerful, savoury and spicy. Unexpected and unforgettable. Extremely limited.
