Coal Ila Distillery Fact

Coal Ila is one of the lighter Islay whiskies. While lighter in color than its powerful neighbors, it has distinctive floral and peppery notes which complement the traditional Islay peat flavor.

In 1986, the distillery became part of the United Distillers conglomerate, leading to the first “semi-official” bottling range in 1989, Flora & Fauna. Although official bottlings have not always been frequently released from Coal Ila, today they’re much easier to source. In addition to the official bottling, independent bottling of the whisky has been well received by the international whisky community. The 1993 12-year-old bottled by Wilson & Morgan received the silver medal at the Malt Maniacs Awards in 2005.
