Caol Ila distillery is Islay’s benchmark dram for clean, maritime peat. Popular with beginners, bottlers, collectors and connoisseurs alike. Think: lemon peel, smoked barley, olive brine, oyster shell and white pepper; an elegant style that takes beautifully to finishing casks without losing its coastal lift.
As a cornerstone of Diageo, Caol Ila underpins premium Johnnie Walker blends and delivers consistently acclaimed official bottlings. That blend of brand strength and reliability is exactly what a private collector or IB wants in a bottling project: a strong brand, with clear global recognition and a consistent spirit that shines both naked and finished.
This 2022 Caol Ila is currently maturing in refill bourbon barrels. As these casks are only three years old, there is an opportunity to re-rack early and benefit from a longer term finish to shape a more premium final release. First-fill bourbon for amplified vanilla, coconut and honeyed sweetness; Sherry (PX/Oloroso) for darker colour, dates, fig and nutty richness; or select wine casks (Port, Madeira, quality red) for a more fruity and unique flavour profile.
We bottled a 12 year old Caol Ila, finished in a Ruby Port cask, under Glaschu Spirits Co. It was a beautiful combination of the classic Caol Ila character and the fruity profile of Ruby Port. The colour was phenomenal too, like Coca Cola. All in all a very successful bottling for us, so it's a spirit we're very fond of.
