Caol Ila 2008/2025 - 17 y.o. - 1st Fill Amontillado Hogshead #306604 (Best Dram)

Special features: This 17-year-old Caol Ila was distilled in April 2008 and matured for over 17 years in a first-fill Amontillado sherry hogshead. It was bottled in 2025 with an alcohol content of 51.9%. The bottling is limited to 262 bottles and has not been colored or chillfiltered.

Tasting Notes:

  • Nose: A restrained peat smoke unfolds, accompanied by nutty and dry sweet notes. Rich aromas of dark toffee, fresh gingerbread with sugar beet syrup, and almonds enrich the bouquet.
  • Palate: The taste presents itself round and voluminous. Following the toffee sweetness is a powerful peat, complemented by fresh gingerbread and light nut notes. Powerful and drinkable.
  • Finish: Very long, maritime, and with strong, dark sweetness.
