Combining Caol Ila’s elegant coastal peat with restrained sherry influence, this limited release delivers a smoky and spirit-driven interpretation of modern Islay whisky. Only 306 bottles were produced.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Coastal peat smoke, salted citrus, damp ash, soft sherry spice, charred oak, and subtle dried fruit.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Oily and smoky with maritime salinity, smoked barley, cracked pepper, burnt orange peel, cocoa, and gentle Oloroso richness.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Long and drying with lingering smoke, coastal minerality, oak spice, and soft sherried warmth.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClassification:\u003c\/strong\u003e Scotch Whisky\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Single Malt\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRegion:\u003c\/strong\u003e Islay, Scotland\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDistillery:\u003c\/strong\u003e Caol Ila\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBottler:\u003c\/strong\u003e Little Brown Dog\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDistilled:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2014\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAge:\u003c\/strong\u003e No Age Statement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 56.3%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCask Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Refill Oloroso Sherry Hogshead\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColouring:\u003c\/strong\u003e No Added Colour\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFiltration:\u003c\/strong\u003e Non-Chill Filtered\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVolume:\u003c\/strong\u003e 700ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle of Bottling:\u003c\/strong\u003e Single Cask Natural Cask Strength\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBottles Produced:\u003c\/strong\u003e 306\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eAbout the Distillery\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCaol Ila has become one of Islay’s most respected distilleries for producing a cleaner and more elegant style of peated whisky, balancing maritime smoke with citrus brightness and oily texture. Independent single cask releases such as this often reveal a more raw and distillate-driven side of the spirit, particularly when paired with restrained sherry maturation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eAbout the Bottling\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eLittle Brown Dog has developed a strong reputation for releasing characterful small-batch and single cask Scotch whiskies with an emphasis on individuality and transparency. This refill Oloroso matured Caol Ila allows the distillery’s coastal peat character to remain central while adding subtle layers of spice, dryness, and depth from the cask.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eArchive Notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePlease review all product images carefully.
