Description
Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Bottled By North Star Spirits 70cl / 53%
A single cask Secret Islay 12-year-old Islay single malt whisky released in 2025 by independent bottlers North Star Spirits as part of their Cask Series 26 outturn. Secret Islay 12-year-old was bottled by North Star at its natural cask strength without colouring or chill filtration and the word on the street is that this one is from Caol Ila.
This 12-year-old Secret Islay was bottled from a single red wine hogshead cask, likely a finish rather than full term maturation, though North Star aren’t specific on that detail, and was an edition of 283 bottles at its natural cask strength of 53%. A must for Islay whisky fans with a penchant for wine finishes.
