Kilchoman Distillery was established in 2005, becoming the first distillery to be built on Islay, Scotland in over 124 years. The distillery was founded in 2005 by Anthony Wills and is Islay’s farm distillery, producing Single Farm Single Malt Whisky.
Combining 20 of these casks together after a minimum of five years of maturation has developed a dry salinity which is balanced with a green fresh fruit influence and elongated delicate Islay peat smoke. As ever, the Sherry butts were purchased from Bodega Jose y Miguel Martin (Spain) for their impeccable standard. Limited to 15,650 btls worldwide.
Tatsing Note: Honeycomb sweetness can be found immediately on the palate, gradually giving way to rich toffee and caramel. The Kilchoman spirit brings together candied fruits and the fresh citrus found in the distillation. Flaked almonds and a delicate peat.
