  • Caol Ila - Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky

Founded in 1846, Caol Ila (pronounced 'cull-eela') has been producing a range of exceptional whiskies that capture the true spirit of this iconic whisky island. Known for its breathtaking views of the Sound of Islay and the Paps of Jura, the distillery offers a serene backdrop to some of Scotland's most profound and characterful whiskies.

    Caol Ila is renowned for its peated single malts, which are a quintessential representation of Islay's whisky style. The distillery's use of local peat in the malting process imparts a distinctive smoky and maritime character to its whiskies, making them highly sought after by enthusiasts around the world. The core range includes expressions that vary in age and cask type, each offering a unique exploration of Islay's natural and cultural heritage.

    The Caol Ila 12 Year Old, the distillery's flagship expression, is a perfect introduction to its style. It offers a balanced combination of rich peaty flavors and a fresh fruity undertone. For those seeking a more intense experience, the Caol Ila Cask Strength presents a powerful and unfiltered taste of Islay.

    Gordon & MacPhail: A Guide to the Scottish Whisky Bottler with Tradition

    Gordon & MacPhail is one of the oldest and most prestigious independent whisky bottlers in Scotland, with origins dating back to 1895. Founded by James Gordon and John Alexander MacPhail, the company remains family-owned, managed by the Urquhart family, and is headquartered in Elgin, in the heart of Speyside, a region famous for its whisky production.

    Over a Century of Whisky Expertise

    Over the years, Gordon & MacPhail has developed unique expertise in maturing whisky. The company is known for selecting exceptional casks and aging them to perfection in their own warehouses. Many of their whiskies mature for decades, some for over 30, 40, or even 50 years before bottling.

    A Diverse Portfolio

    Gordon & MacPhail's range includes various product lines such as 'Connoisseurs Choice', 'Private Collection', and 'Generations'. Each line features its own theme and style, ranging from young, vibrant bottlings to rare, decades-old whiskies. Notably, Gordon & MacPhail also offers whiskies from closed distilleries, providing connoisseurs the chance to experience historically significant single malts.

    Commitment to Sustainability and Innovation

    In addition to preserving tradition, Gordon & MacPhail places great emphasis on sustainability and the advancement of their production processes. The company has recently announced plans to gradually reduce its role as an independent bottler and focus more on producing its own distillates. This includes using whisky from their own distilleries like Benromach and The Cairn to enhance the quality and uniqueness of their products.

    For whisky enthusiasts, Gordon & MacPhail offer not just a tasting of top-quality malts but also a profound experience of Scottish whisky history, marked by the company's dedication and passion.
