    Connoisseurs Choice 2001

    Connoisseurs Choice 2001

    from Caol Ila Distillery (cask strength)

    Passion for single malt Scotch whisky has been at the heart of our family business for four generations. This range is an ever-changing collection of unique perspectives on distilleries’ own bottlings, non-chill-filtered single cask and small batch expressions bottled at cask strength — exceptional one-offs.
