Caol Ila is derived from Gaelic Caol Ìle for "Sound of Islay" (lit. "Islay Strait"). The distillery was founded in 1846 by Hector Henderson, and is owned today by Diageo. Like other Islay whiskies, Caol Ila is often peated, though usually on the lighter side, pale in colour, with floral and peppery notes.
This contains 24 year old distillates, bottled for the distillery's 175th anniversary. One of 3000 bottles.
