Caol Ila 1989 Coilltean Private Cask / Samaroli Import
An unusual single vintage bottling of Caol Ila, distilled in 1989 and bottled in 2000.
The whisky was drawn from the private casks of Maurizio Menichetti, numbers #3261 and #3262. They were bottled for him in Scotland by Coilltean International, and shipped in to Italy by parent company, the legendary Samaroli.
Coilltean was a name devised by Samaroli in the 1980s to disguise duplicate distilleries in his bottling series' and give the illusion of further variety after he over-bought casks of 1975 vintage Glen Garioch. It later becamew the name of the Scottish-based bottling arm of his company in the 1990s, when their long standing arrangement with R.W. Duthie came to an end.
