North Star Caol Ila 8 Year Charity Btl
$75.99
Region:Scotland > Islay
This lil treat was bottled specially for CHAS (Children's Hospices Across Scotland). It's also the second North Star charity bottling we've seen over the last few months. Gotta hand it to Iain Croucher and the North Star team; they're putting their money where their mouth is.
The outturn was 600 bottles from a Refill Sherry Butt, but you'd be hard pressed to consider this much of a sherried malt. What it is, however, is a tasty and surpisingly balanced young Islay malt. The kind of dram peatheads spend their days hunting for.
Natural colour, non-chill filtered and bottled at 51%.
