Port cask #255
This Caol Ila is a single cask Islay single malt, bottled in 2023 by the independent bottler Cooper's Choice. It comes in a 70cl bottle at 44.5% ABV and is bottled without chill filtration. It was matured in a single port cask, number 255, which adds fruity, wine-like character to the peated Caol Ila spirit. The nose is maritime peat smoke with red berries, dried fruits, plum and dark cherry. The palate brings smoke and sea salt with blackcurrant, raspberry jam and dark chocolate, with an oily texture and cinnamon and clove. The finish is long and warming, with smoke, dried fruits and a little tannic dryness.

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.
