Caol Ila 2013-2022 | 9 Year Old Douglas Laing Provenance Single Cask DL16017

Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Bottled by: Douglas Laing 70cl / 58.4%

A 2013 Caol Ila single malt bottled in 2022 by Douglas Laing for the Provenance Single Cask range. Matured for 9 years in a refill barrel, this single cask release was bottled at cask strength of 58.4% ABV, without colouring or chill filtration, with just 227 bottles produced.

Douglas Laing's tasting notes describe sweet and smoked barley laced with coal dust and crushed sugar on the nose, followed by an oily palate with more coal dust, smoked barley and citrus. The finish brings further smoke, charred oak and a lingering coastal character.

Caol Ila is the largest distillery on Islay, with much of its production traditionally destined for blended Scotch whisky. Its tall stills and relatively clear wort help produce a lighter, cleaner style of peated spirit than is found at several of the island's other distilleries, making independently bottled single casks particularly interesting examples of the distillery's character.

Please Note: This bottle is a part of a large batch of bin-ends we recently picked up at a great price, enabling us to pass on savings to our customers. However, only one or two bottles of each product were included in the parcel - so when they’re gone they’re gone! Please note that due to the size and nature of this batch of stock, some labels and boxes may show signs of wear.
