Description

The Caol Ila Distillery is a whisky powerhouse producing a spirit that combines richness, depth and vibrancy - a peat-lover's dream. Our Benchmark series showcases the true heart of this boisterous whisky by filling it into freshly emptied Tokaji wine casks to give it elegance, grace and sophistication. Matured for two years in luxurious, sweet Tokaji wine casks, this Islay malt has integrated beautifully with the delicacies of the Hungarian dessert wine, creating a sumptuous mouthfeel and compellingly complex flavour. A truly exceptional dram, showing our excellence in the Art of Maturation.
