Tasting Notes
Caol Ila 12 Year Old - Fèis Ìle 2021 is a special edition whisky that deserves your attention. This Islay single malt was initially matured in refill American oak casks, allowing it to develop a solid foundation of classic Caol Ila flavors. However, the real magic happened when it was transferred to moscatel wine casks for a final finishing period. The sweet and fruity notes from the wine casks perfectly complement the smoky and maritime character of the spirit, creating a harmonious and complex flavor profile. With a natural cask strength bottling and a limited outturn of just 3,000 bottles, this release is a true gem for whisky enthusiasts. The unique combination of traditional Islay peat and the exotic moscatel wine influence makes this Caol Ila a standout among the annual Fèis Ìle releases.
