Caol Ila 15 2010/2026 - Berry Bros and Rudd Year of the Horse - Oloroso Sherry Cask Finish #318389

The Fire Horse symbolizes strength, dynamism, and intensity. As the zodiac sign of the Chinese calendar, it ushered in what was expected to be an energetic and eventful new year on February 17th. Berry Bros. & Rudd provides the perfect whisky to accompany it.

The Caol Ila 2010/2026 is a 15-year-old single cask, matured in Oloroso sherry casks. While the malts from this Islay distillery exhibit many of the island's typical smoky notes, they also possess a fruity elegance. Berry Bros. & Rudd underscored this dynamic character with the sherry finish.

At an intense 55.1% ABV cask strength, tarry ropes, rubbery peat, and driftwood campfires mingle with robust fig jam, orange peel, and worn leather. Oily notes of milk chocolate, vanilla sponge cake, and poached pear introduce the long and complex finish, which ends with sweet ash.
