Chapter 7 Monologue 9 Year Old Caol Ila 2011 Scotch Whisky

About Chapter 7 Monologue 9 Year Old Caol Ila 2011 Scotch Whisky

Chapter 7 has three series of expressions: Monologue, Anecdote, and Chronicle. The first are unique single casks, the second once-in-a-lifetime small batches or married atypical whiskies, the third has their aging reserves. The 12th release in the Monologue series comes from the Islay Caol Ila distillery. Known to be less smoky than its Islay neighbors, the distillery employs different mashing and fermenting practices as well as stills, producing fruitier single malts that are a great entry point into the world of peated whisky, as well as suiting palates that prefer their peat notes on the subtle side. This expression comes from Chapter 7's hogsheads that were re-racked into first-fill bourbon casks. Distilled in 2011, this hogshead yielded 297 bottles of the 9-year-old spirit, cut down to 100.8 proof.

About Scotch

Scotch is the most popular whisky in the world and is considered the king of them all! There are five whisky regions in Scotland (six if you count the not officially recognized Islands), and each of them produces spirits with unique properties and distinct tasting notes. (The type of grain used determents the type of the scotch.)

Malt whisky is made of malted barley, and grain whisky uses other grains like corn or wheat. Most of the time, a whisky is blended from different distilleries hence the name blended scotch, but if a malt whisky is produced in a single distillery, we get something extraordinary called a single malt.
