This exclusive bottling is in an Islay class by itself. Exceptional flavors wthout the typical heavy handedness of iodine in younger Caol Ila expressions. This one is a "must have dram" for any collection.

Its your choice! The freshness and zest of both the Le Citron and Cinco De Mayo make for an excellent pairing. The orange peel in Grignottine makes for a wonderful playmate while the carmelized nuts accentuate the peat in this exceptional dram.
