About This Whisky

Cask Le Sens #1 Caol Ila 1990 31 years old

Description

As a distinguished cask broker specializing in premium whiskies and rums for independent bottlers and whisky enthusiasts, Cask Le Sens curates exceptional releases featuring rare and aged expressions. This is our inaugural release which we carefully selected to start our bottling journey. 

This cask embodies the very essence of what Cask Le Sens represents- our deep appreciation for purity and unpolished character in whisky. We fell in love with this expression precisely because it showcases the raw, authentic beauty that comes from minimal intervention, allowing the spirit's true nature to shine through without artifice or unnecessary refinement.

The whisky reveals the distinctive dual personality that made early 1990s Caol Ila with both bright fruity elegance and classic Islay peat in perfect harmony, with each character unfolding in mellow, lingering waves across the palate. It captures the essence of what makes Caol Ila special: that rare ability to balance the island's signature maritime peat with unexpected fruit brightness, creating a dram that is both powerfully evocative and gracefully refined.
