Product description

Product description
This Caol Ila is part of Gordon & MacPhail's 'Discovery Series'. In 2018, a revamp of the independent bottler's complete range followed, with the Discovery Series being a new addition. All their bottlings differ in Taste and due to their production. Thus, there are the three flavour profiles bourbon cask, sherry cask and smoky (smoky). The different characters differ in their colour design: green = bourbon cask; purple = sherry cask; white/grey = smoky.
