The Murray McDavid PARTNERSHIP SERIES 8 Years Old Caol Ila Murça Tawny Port Cask 2018 55.9% ABV 0.7 l is an intense yet elegantly matured Islay single malt Scotch whisky that combines the characteristic smokiness of Caol Ila with the fruity influences of a Murça Tawny Port cask.

This limited edition from the popular Partnership Series combines the maritime character of Islay with sweet port notes, resulting in a particularly complex tasting experience.

Distilled in 2018, the Caol Ila Single Malt was initially matured traditionally and then finished in a high-quality Murça Tawny Port cask, allowing the whisky to develop additional fruitiness, depth and a spicy sweetness. With a robust 55.9% ABV, this Scottish single malt whisky has been bottled at natural cask strength and presents itself as particularly intense and aromatically concentrated. The combination of smoky Islay character, dark fruits and delicate port sweetness makes this bottling an extraordinary experience for lovers of powerful cask-matured whiskies.
