Caol Ila 1975-1997 | 21 Year Old Rare Malts Selection

Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Distillery Bottling 70cl / 61.3%

A top class 1975 Caol Ila 21-year-old bottled in 1997 by Diageo forerunners United Distillers for the iconic Rare Malts Selection series. This magnificent old Caol Ila is highly underrated.

This fantastic Rare Malts Caol Ila was a batch of 1975 casks that somehow preserved a heroically strong 61.3% natural cask strength at 21 years old. A nervous dram at first with in-your-face citrus, hay, mineral and sooty notes in an austere style that is balanced by a fabulously intense, rich mouthfeel.
