Caol Ila 11 Year Old 2011 - Hepburn's Choice

Cask Types

Tasting Notes

This 11-year-old Caol Ila from the renowned Islay distillery showcases the region's signature smoky character. Distilled in 2011 and aged in a sherry butt, it offers an inviting aroma reminiscent of Lapsang souchong tea, grilled peaches, and dried apricots. On the palate, it's a warming experience with bonfire smoke mingling harmoniously with notes of milk chocolate, toasted almonds, and spiced fruit cake. The finish lingers with ashy smoke and winter spice notes. Bottled at cask strength without chill-filtration or added color, this limited edition of 707 bottles from Hepburn's Choice range captures the essence of Islay's robust and peaty whiskies in an exceptional single cask expression.
