Signatory Vintage, Caol Ila 2012, 100 Proof Edition #70, Aged 13 years, 1st Fill & Refill Oloroso Sherry Butts, Single Malt Scotch Whisky (57.1%, 70cl)

This Caol Ila 2012 was bottled by Signatory Vintage as part of the 100 Proof Edition series and aged for 13 years in first fill and refill Oloroso sherry butts. Distilled in 2012 and bottled at 57.1 percent ABV, it combines the distillery’s coastal peat smoke with the depth and richness of sherry maturation. Expect a layered profile of smoked citrus, dried fruit and dark chocolate, with maritime saltiness and warming spice running through the finish. The higher proof gives weight and intensity without masking the clean, mineral character that Caol Ila is known for.
