Caol Ila 2007 Moon Import 40th Anniversary / Lawless

Moon Import was founded by Pepi Mongiardino in 1980 and he bottled his first whisky in 1982. Always beautifully labelled, Pepi is acclaimed for designing the packaging for Moon Import bottles himself, often using images found in old books. These iconic designs, coupled with the quality of the liquid saw Moon Import steadily grow in popularity. The company is still going strong, and their early releases are some of the brightest gems in any whisky collection.

This Caol Ila was distilled in 2007 and bottled in 2020 as part of the Lawless series, first bottled in 2015 for the company’s 35th anniversary. This is a 40th anniversary bottling.
