Caol Ila 2007 Sherry Butt The Samurai Kirsch Serie Signatory Vintage 70cl, 59.1%

Description

Caol Ila 2007 Sherry Butt The Samurai Kirsch Serie Signatory Vintage 70cl 59.1% is a bold and smoky Islay single malt Scotch whisky bottled by Signatory Vintage for Kirsch Import as part of the striking Samurai series. Distilled on 28 September 2007 and bottled on 15 October 2020, this release spent 13 years maturing before being bottled at its natural cask strength of 59.1% ABV.

This expression was finished in sherry butt cask number 8, giving Caol Ila’s naturally coastal and peaty spirit a richer layer of dried fruit, spice, and sweetness. The result is a whisky that combines classic Islay smoke with deeper sherried notes, creating a profile that is both powerful and well balanced.

With only 686 bottles released, this is a limited single cask bottling with strong appeal for collectors and enthusiasts of independent Islay whisky. The Samurai label design adds further character, making it a bottle that stands out both on the shelf and in the glass.

Collector’s Note

This is exactly the kind of bottle that attracts collector interest: an independently bottled Caol Ila, a cask strength presentation, a sherry butt finish, a limited outturn, and an exclusive release for Kirsch Import. The Samurai series presentation adds extra visual appeal, making it especially attractive for buyers who enjoy distinctive single cask bottlings with strong shelf presence. The point about shelf appeal is an inference based on the branded Samurai presentation.
