About the event
Caol Ila - Rugged. Remote. Powerhouse whisky maker for over 180 years. The true Peat Beast.
Lagavulin - History. Legacy. Born from the most famous coast of peat purveyors. All-Time. The real Scotch medicine.
Both born on Islay. Both weathering storms for centuries. Both true to their roots. Both peaty as hell.
We have long waited for this one. Caol Ila vs. Lagavulin. A proper Throwdown to see who rises above. Our good friend Ewan Morgan from Diageo is flying in for this one. Enough said, buckle up and see you there!
The pour list lineup will include:
Caol Ila 1976 20yr 150th Anniversary Bottle
