Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky Bottled by: Gordon & MacPhail 70cl / 45%
A 2010 Caol Ila 12-year-old bottled in 2023 at 45% without colouring or chill filtration by Gordon & MacPhail for their Connoisseurs Choice range.
Unlike other Sassicaia wood finishes, this 12-year-old Caol Ila 2010 started life in refill bourbon barrels before spending the last year of its maturation in red wine casks that were formerly home to famous Super Tuscan classic Sassicaia.
Expected stewed fruits and citrus.

Yes, a lovely expression from Ardnmurchan. As young as it is (5yrs old I believe), it tastes twice its maturity!
Very well made, delicious & beautifully complex smells & flavours to savour.
