Caol Ila Ambrosial Feast 11 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky Special Release 2024

Caol Ila 11 Year Old “Ambrosial Feast” – 2024 Special Release

A rare unpeated expression from Islay’s iconic distillery, this 11-year-old golden dram was matured in refill and rejuvenated wine casks before bottling at a bold 57.3% ABV (115 proof).
