Sauternes Hogshead
A strongly peated Caol Ila single malt distilled in 2014 and matured for eleven years in a Sauternes hogshead. It was bottled in 2026 at 53% cask strength for the Nectar & Kirsch edition, without chill filtration or colouring. The release marks the twentieth anniversary of The Nectar and was bottled jointly by Signatory Vintage and The Nectar. Caol Ila has stood on Islay's north-east coast since 1846; its malt comes from Port Ellen and its water from Loch nam Ban. The nose combines clear smoke and salty sea notes with honey and vanilla, with citrus adding freshness. The palate brings strong smoke and fine pepper spice alongside creamy vanilla and bright citrus, with subtle oak giving structure. The finish is long, remaining smoky and salty, with a gentle honey sweetness lingering.
