Embrace a fiery fusion of Islay peat and Spanish oak with Caol Ila 9 Year Old – 2015 Vintage, Signatory 100-Proof Edition #42. Distilled on Islay’s eastern shore, this small-batch single malt spent its life in a parcel of 1st- and 2nd-fill Oloroso sherry butts, then was bottled in 2025 at the range’s trademark 100 Proof (57.1 % ABV). The fresh and seasoned casks drape Caol Ila’s briny, medicinal smoke in sumptuous layers of dark fruit, cocoa and baking spice. Un-chill-filtered and natural in colour, Edition #42 delivers a bold, full-bodied glimpse of sherried Islay intensity.
