Single Malt
Scotland
Vintages 2009 and 2010 of Caol Ila single malt whisky were aged for 15 years in refill and first-fill sherry hogsheads. Decadent Drinks married both for two years before bottling the whole thing at 57.1% ABV to create a thick, tarry and unapologetically Islay single malt. It clings to the glass like roof felt, delivering salted liquorice, bacon jam, camphor and seawater over deep sherry sweetness. A big, coastal, umami beast, with just 266 bottles filled.
Tarry peat, salted liquorice, cured meat, camphor, dark sherry and maritime air.
Thick and smoky with bacon jam, dense tar, brine, sherry-soaked fruit and herbal peat. Intense texture with sticky, oily weight.
Seawater, tar, medicinal smoke and savoury sherry depth.
