1995 Signatory - Caol Ila

This 46% beauty is from the Unchilfiltered Collection by indie bottlers Signatory. Aged for 19 years in 2 hogsheads, bottle number 88 of 692. Medium yellow colour. The nose is a pure joyride of coastal peaty friendliness. It immediately takes me back to Islay. The mouthfeel has a good viscosity, with the peaty coastal brine coming on in a pure, non-harsh fashion. I do love a good peaty Islay malt and this is no exception.

Nice bottle, Nicos. I love me some Caol Isla, and 46% is just fine by me, though you know my better half would say it’s good in spite of being only 46%… :slight_smile:

Thank you Sarah. I think you would have enjoyed this bottle quite a bit. I have other bottles for your better half to try… :wink:
