Chapter 7 Monologue 9 Year Old Caol Ila 2011
Chapter 7 Monologue 9 Year Old Caol Ila 2011 is a single-cask Islay single malt distilled in 2011 at the renowned Caol Ila distillery. Known for its refined take on Islay's signature peated style, Caol Ila's unique mashing, fermentation, and distillation methods yield a delicate balance of fruity and smoky notes. Aged nine years in hogsheads before being re-racked into first-fill bourbon casks, this expression was bottled at 100.8 proof, resulting in only 297 bottles of this rare release.
The whisky opens with an inviting nose of tobacco, peat, rosemary, lemon zest, and vanilla, offering a preview of its intricate flavor profile. On the palate, bright citrus melds seamlessly with smoked barley and a hint of brine, creating a harmonious interplay of freshness and depth. The finish lingers beautifully, with notes of caramel and pear providing a soft, sweet conclusion to this memorable sip. This refined single malt is an ideal introduction to Islay whiskies for those seeking a gentler peat experience.
Best enjoyed neat or with a splash of water to fully explore its complex layers, Chapter 7 Monologue 9 Year Old Caol Ila 2011 is a testament to Chapter 7's commitment to exceptional single-cask releases. Each bottle captures the essence of its Islay origins, making it a perfect choice for both seasoned enthusiasts and those new to peated Scotch whisky.
