Experience a masterful fusion of tradition and innovation with the caol ila 10 year old 2014, a limited edition single malt scotch whisky bottled by the acclaimed independent bottler murray mcdavid as part of their esteemed benchmark series. Distilled in 2014 at the legendary caol ila distillery on islay's rugged coastline, this exceptional whisky embodies the quintessential maritime character and smoky allure that define the region's spirits. What sets this release apart is its double maturation process. After aging gracefully in traditional oak casks, the whisky undergoes a secondary maturation in koval rye quarter casks sourced from the pioneering koval distillery in chicago. These smaller quarter casks, previously home to spicy rye whiskey, accelerate the maturation process and impart a unique depth of flavor, marrying the smoky peat of islay with the rich, spicy notes of american rye.
