Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Bottled by: Gordon & MacPhail 70cl / 45%
A 2009 Caol Ila 13-year-old bottled in 2022 at 45% without colouring or chill filtration by Gordon & MacPhail for their Connoisseurs Choice range.
This 13-year-old Caol Ila 2009 started life in refill bourbon barrels before spending the last two years of its maturation in red wine casks that were formerly home to famous Super Tuscan classic Sassicaia, so expect plenty of extra red berry and tobacco flavours alongside Caol Ila's citrussy, smoky delights.
Please note that this Caol Ila 2009 is Strictly Maximum 1 Bottle Per Customer and is not eligible for any discounts.
