This Caol Ila is a single cask Islay single malt, distilled on 1 April 2016 and bottled on 21 June 2021 by The Single Cask at cask strength, 57.3%, in a 70cl bottle. It spent five years in a first-fill ex-bourbon barrel, which adds a firm sweetness to the smoky spirit. It is bottled without colouring and without chill-filtering. The nose is strong smoke, tar, oak and vanilla. The palate runs through soot, oak, vanilla and honey. The finish is long and ashy, ending on a sweet vanilla note.

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.
