2013 Claxton's Warehouse No.8 Caol Ila 9 Year Old Cask Strength Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml)

Those who enjoy Caol Ila's Distiller's Edition bottling (Moscatel finish) may find similar pleasures in this expression from a PX sherry octave. Not quite ten years old, but as they say, "valour does not depend upon age" - especially true when it comes to this distillery. 58.4% Alc./Vol. Non-chill filtered. 68 bottles only.

Notes from the bottlers... NOSE: Rich Sherry and fruit with a thick wave of smoke at the edges. Cherry candy. PALATE: Sweet and fruity at first. The peat is intermingled with oak and Sherry notes. FINISH: Long and elegant. Perfect balance of thick oak and sherry flavours.
