CAOL ILA 1999 GORDON & MACPHAIL CONNOISSEURS CHOICE

CAOL ILA 1999 GORDON & MACPHAIL CONNOISSEURS CHOICE

Single malt.

Caol Ila might not be the prettiest distillery on Islay, but the spectacular view it enjoys, across the water to the neighbouring island of Jura, more than makes up for it. The distillery itself is an absolute monster, producing more litres of spirit per year than Lagavulin, Ardbeg, and Laphroaig combined! A good chunk of its staggering output winds up in Johnnie Walker, but there’s still plenty left to be bottled as single malt, in both peated and un-peated guises.

Distilled: 1999

Bottled: 2013

46% ABV / 70cl
