There are so many legendary distilleries on Islay like Ardbeg, Laphroaig and Lagavulin, that it sometimes is easy to forget how great Caol Ila is. Their peated whisky is consistentlyamong the best in all of Scotland. Even better, it is relatively affordable as well. Produced in the beautifully located distillery overlooking the Sound of Jura, the Caol Ila 25 Y has aged for over a quarter century. The long maturation makes for a very different, more elegant experience compared to younger peated whiskies.
