Caol Ila 12 Year Old The Manager’s Dram

From the rugged shores of Islay, Caol Ila 12 Year Old offers a beautifully balanced introduction to the island’s famed smoky character. This single malt, distilled at one of Islay’s most historically significant distilleries, presents a delicate peat influence interwoven with notes of citrus fruit and sea salt. Its flavour profile unfolds with a gentle sweetness, evolving into a subtly smoky finish – a testament to Caol Ila’s unique ability to craft both peated and unpeated expressions. Bottled in November 2021 after 12 years of maturation, this 58% ABV whisky embodies the consistent quality that has earned Caol Ila a dedicated following.
