Caol Ila 1989 Coilltean Private Cask / Samaroli Import

An unusual single vintage bottling of Caol Ila, distilled in 1989 and bottled in 2000.

The whisky was drawn from the private casks of Maurizio Menichetti, numbers #3261 and #3262. They were bottled for him in Scotland by Coilltean International, and shipped in to Italy by parent company, the legendary Samaroli.

Coilltean was a name devised by Samaroli in the 1980s to disguise duplicate distilleries in his bottling series' and give the illusion of further variety after he over-bought casks of 1975 vintage Glen Garioch. It later becamew the name of the Scottish-based bottling arm of his company in the 1990s, when their long standing arrangement with R.W. Duthie came to an end.

Black Maple Hill Small Batch Kentucky Straight Bourbon

Black Maple Hill is owned by Californian company, CVI Brands. They do not own a distillery and contract the bottling of the brand to outside sources, initially with Julian Van Winkle in 2000, and then Kentucky Bourbon Distillers, who produced this.

KBD eventually hads to reserve their warehoused stocks for their own popular Willett Family Reserve brand, so CVI have been sourcing their from the Stein distillery in Oregon since 2014.

These hand-bottled releases of the Kentucky bourbon are difficult to come by.
