Alexander Murray & Co Caol Ila Single Cask 2014 10 year 750 ml
This exceptional single cask release from Alexander Murray & Co showcases the unmistakable character of Caol Ila, one of Islay’s most respected distilleries. Distilled in 2014 and aged 10 years, it captures the perfect balance of coastal smokiness, maritime freshness, and layered complexity that Caol Ila is celebrated for.
Tasting Profile
-
Nose: A vibrant mix of coastal peat smoke, sea spray, and earthy minerality. Underneath the smoke lie notes of lemon zest, green apple, sweet malt, and a touch of vanilla.
-
Palate: Bold yet refined, with a clean, smoky sweetness. Expect flavors of charred oak, warm peat embers, salted caramel, citrus oil, and soft herbal undertones. The spirit’s maritime nature shines, delivering hints of brine and coastal grass.
-
Finish: Long, smoky, and gently warming. Lingering notes of ash, citrus, and light spice give way to a dry, savory fade that’s distinctly Islay.
Character & Craftsmanship
As a true single cask release, this whisky offers a singular snapshot of Caol Ila’s iconic style—peat-forward yet elegant, with remarkable clarity and depth. Alexander Murray & Co’s careful cask selection allows the distillate’s purity and maritime influence to shine.
