Caol Ila 2019 7YO, Murray McDavid Cask Partnership Series, 55.2%

Provenance, authenticity and quality lie at the heart of Murray McDavid's Cask Partnership Series, which showcases single malt Scotch whiskies matured in flavourful casks sourced from wine and spirit producers around the world.

Established in 2008 as Chicago's first distillery since the 1930s Prohibition era, Koval combines whisky-making tradition with an innovative approach. For this cask partnership, Koval's compact 110-litre American oak casks, previously used to mature its bourbon, were selected.

This Caol Ila single malt brings together citrus smoke and coastal peat with the sweet influence of bourbon cask maturation. The resulting profile features notes of salted caramel, lemon oil and toasted coconut.
