Given the bottles are still readily available in Europe in 2020, it is fair to say they haven’t been flying off of the shelves.

Caol Ila 13 yo 2007/2021 (57.8%, The Whisky Blues, refill hogshead, cask #320319, 160 bottles) - 230921 Chaos Edition No 2 (50%, North Star, 2 oloroso butts and one refill hogshead oloroso finish, bottled 2020, 1500 bottles) - by Angus - 060221 Finding out any details of the cask composition of Caol Ila 18 year old is no easy task it seems. Whilst it’s obviously an ex-bourbon led expression, it’s not immediately clear what type of ex-bourbon casks are in play here. I’d go out on a limb to guess that there’s a good proportion of refill hogsheads in the mix here – utilised to allow a more mellow maturation with reduced wood interactivity. The bottling is not technically a batch whisky in terms of labelling, but Whiskybase indicates that there’s over a dozen releases from 2004 – 2016 so one might expect that batch variance is a possibility (and therefore this could well be an ideal whisky to earmark for a re-review in the future). For clarity, our review bottling is the most recent version from 2016 – like all others, it’s delivered at 43% ABV.

Caol Ila 33 yo 1984/2017 (54.5%, Cadenhead, Authentic Collection, 175th Anniversary, bourbon, 144 bottles) - 300620 Without prejudice to the section Liability below, the Service may be temporarily unavailable during maintenance, updates, etc. We shall make reasonable efforts to inform you of any unavailability due to maintenance or updates.
