Caol Ila 1978 - Gordon & MacPhail - b. 1992 - 70cl

Caol Ila 1978 – Gordon & MacPhail (GM)

Single Malt Scotch Whisky

A rare and highly collectible vintage Caol Ila single malt, distilled in 1978 and bottled in 1992 by the renowned independent bottler Gordon & MacPhail. This bottling originates from the Italian market, released in collaboration with Meregalli Giuseppe s.r.l., making it an increasingly scarce expression.

Caol Ila is celebrated for its elegant Islay character, balancing coastal peat smoke with citrus freshness and subtle maritime notes. Bottlings from the late 1970s are particularly sought after, as they showcase a classic distillery style that differs from many modern releases.

This whisky was bottled at 40.0% ABV and comes in the traditional 700 ml format. An excellent opportunity for collectors of vintage Islay whiskies, Gordon & MacPhail bottlings, or classic Italian-market releases.
