Caol Ila 12 Year Old is an Islay single malt whisky produced at the Caol Ila distillery in Port Askaig on the Isle of Islay. While also well-loved by connoisseurs, this entry-level bottling is the perfect single malt scotch for any whisky lover looking for an introduction to the peated malt style. Medium-bodied and with an abundance of maritime character, Caol Ila 12-year-old remains relatively restrained in its peatiness, compensating with an array of malt, floral, herbal, caramel and fruit notes along with a rich, oily palate. Excellent on its own, in whisky cocktails or with food - try alongside mature blue cheeses.

Caol Ila

One of the largest distilleries on Islay, Caol Ila was founded on the north of the island, near Port Askaig, in 1846. The distillery water source is Loch Nam Ban providing water filtered through a combination of limestone and peat. Caol Ila produces nearly four million litres a year, mostly for premium blended whiskies like Johnnie Walker. Only around a twentieth of the production is bottled as a single malt.

While the house-style is a classic, peated Islay malt, Caol Ila have successfully experimented with unpeated whiskies over the years. The core range features a 12 year old and an 18 year old along with Moch, a lighter style of single malt that takes its name from the Garlic for 'dawn'.
