The Scotch Whisky Masters - Gold

2024

The Haunting Songs is a 12-year-old peated single malt Scotch whisky from the Caol Ila Distillery, part of Brave New Spirits' WhiskyHeroes collection. This expression has been finished in a first-fill Oloroso Sherry hogshead, resulting in a harmonious blend of peat smoke and rich sherry influences.


Bottled at a cask strength of 51.6% ABV, it offers a robust and satisfying experience for whisky enthusiasts. The limited release comprises only 694 bottles, making it a sought-after addition for collectors and connoisseurs.
