- Description
- Kilchoman's 100% Islay bottling from 2024 represents the distillery's home-grown barley initiative, with spirit from 2011-2013 harvests aged 11 years in oloroso sherry butts. The sherry cask maturation has infused dried fruits and warming spices while the local peat and barley retain their natural citrus sweetness and smoke character. The palate balances sweetness and spice with earthy peat, finishing long and complex. A compelling expression for those interested in terroir-driven whisky and the emerging character of Islay's youngest distillery.
