Caol Ila 10 Year Old 2010 Oh Man That's Great
Bottle Information
Tasting Notes
Caol Ila Oh Man That’s Great 10 Year Old 2010 is a powerful and evocative Islay single malt Scotch whisky, created to celebrate one of the most profound moments in human history—the Apollo 8 mission, the first crewed spacecraft to reach the Moon, orbit it, and safely return to Earth. During this historic journey, the Apollo 8 astronauts became the first humans to witness and photograph the breathtaking Earthrise, forever changing how we view our planet.
To honour this extraordinary achievement, The Whisky Barrel selected a single first fill sherry hogshead sourced from Bodegas Rey Fernando de Castilla in Jerez. Distilled in 2010 and bottled in July 2020, this remarkable Caol Ila was released in a strictly limited outturn of just 294 individually numbered bottles, making it a rare and highly collectible expression, exclusive to The Whisky Barrel.
