DOUBLE RELEASE: Caol Ila 13 yr old & Deanston 2012 – Decadent Drinks Whisky News
DOUBLE PRODUCT RELEASE
ISLAY SPONGE PART VI CAOL ILA 13-YEAR-OLD
This is the last of the ‘low hanging’ distilleries in our Islay Sponge series; the jury remains out on just when exactly we’ll bottle a Port Ellen or Lagavulin… For now though, this is a gorgeous multi-vintage and nicely sherried Caol Ila 13-year-old that perfectly represents this Islay stalwart in our Islay Sponge series. A 50/50 mix of a 2009 refill sherry hogshead and 2010 1st fill sherry hogshead, this shows off the Caol Ila distillate in full, peaty glory, while gently draping everything in a gentle tinge of clean sherry.
WHISKY SPONGE WEB EXCLUSIVE – DEANSTON 2012
As we near the grand milestone of our 100th edition, we’re pulling out all the stops to bid farewell to the era of The Sponge! And what better way to celebrate than with a Special Whisky Sponge Exclusive, handpicked with our Decadent Drinks followers in mind! We’ve selected a naturally low volume, 1st fill barrel of Deanston, from 2012, bottled at natural cask strength. This classic, modern, highland-style Deanston, is oozing with character and charisma!
