Caol Ila 1998 Feis Ile 2013

Distilled in 1998, this exceptional Caol Ila expression is a triple-matured masterpiece personally selected by Billy Stitchell for the 2013 Feis Ile festival. The spirit was aged for twelve years in a combination of refill butts, hogsheads, and barrels before a final marriage in active hogsheads and a finishing period in European oak. This meticulous process imparts a complex profile, characterized by a sophisticated interplay of coastal peat smoke and a warming, spicy depth. Proudly rooted in the heritage of Islay, this bottling showcases the incredible craftsmanship and versatile character that define this renowned Glasgow-based distillery's finest releases.
