The Caol Ila 6 years is a single malt Scotch whisky from the renowned Islay distillery Caol Ila, bottled by the independent bottler Murray McDavid. This bottling is characterized by its youthful freshness and intense smokiness, which is typical of Islay whiskies. The maturation took place initially in bourbon hogsheads, followed by further maturation in Pedro Ximénez (PX) sherry hogsheads from Bodegas Ximénez-Spínola, which gives the whisky additional depth and complexity.

The Caol Ila 6 Year Old Murray McDavid is a lively yet balanced Islay single malt that masterfully combines the distillery's signature smokiness with the sweet and fruity influences of the PX sherry casks. Ideal for lovers of smoky whiskies with an additional depth of flavour.
