Caol Ila 12 Years Old is an Islay single malt matured for 12 years in American oak ex-bourbon casks, in a 75cl bottle. The distillery was built in 1846 by Hector Henderson, close to Port Askaig, and its tall, onion-shaped stills give the spirit a light, elegant character. The nose is peaty and smoky, with distinctive floral notes. On the palate it is soft, with iodine, seaweed, a slightly medicinal edge and salt, alongside sweet fruit and honey. The finish is dry and peppery, with a little smoke.

About Glenbotal

The idea of Glenbotal came to us naturally: as whisky lovers, we were always on the lookout for new experiences in the whisky world. That’s why we created Glenbotal and became our very own first customers. We buy unique and hard to find spirits from ballots and private collections. Then, we share them with a small circle of friends and people who can appreciate a good dram.
