Celebrating Caol Ila
Fèis Ìle has always been abou more than just the whisky. It is a celebration of place, people and shared passion - where distilleries, whisky makers, retailers, enthusiasts and locals gather to honour the spirit of Islay and the community that surrounds it.
For Fèis Ìle 2026, Rare Find presents a trio of special releases that pay tribute to one of Islay's most revered distilling styles. Each bottling begins with the unmistakable, smoky maritme and medicinal character that has made Caol Ila a cornerstone of Islay whisky. From this shared foundation, each cask has been given its own carefully judged finishing period, exploring how subtle secondary maturation can enhance and complement the distillery's signature profile.

A TRIO EXPLORING THREE DISTINCT FINISHING INFLUENCES



TASTING NOTES
Opening with the sweet, caramelised aroma of griddled strawberries and the nutty warmth of salted almonds. Hints of ashy smoke and delicate angelica mingle, creating an inviting, yet intriguing nose.
Rich and mouthcoating, with bold aniseed notes that intertwine with billowing coastal smoke. Layers of zesty lemon tart add both freshness and impact.
Enduring, with a briny salinity that lingers on the palate. Slowly fading notes of bright lemon merge with persistent phenolic smoke, creating a layered, coastal character.
