From The Official Website

This limited edition is made using the same vatting recipe as our regular Machir Bay bottling however rather than reducing the strength to 46% abv we have released a limited number of bottles at cask strength; 58.3% abv. The higher abv allows for the quality and intensity of the Kilchoman spirit to shine.

Nose: Opens with light, fruity notes influenced by our distillation. Being cask strength allows for intense waves of fresh green apple followed by candied tropical fruits. Lasting hints of dry, earthy peat smoke become the backbone for this release.

Palate: Noticeably powerful at cask strength allowing for a concentrated palate combining citrus notes of lemon and orange peel. As the whisky opens it reveals a dominant honeycomb-sweetness that makes way for a profile driven by milk chocolate, provided by a Bourbon-rich maturation.

Finish: A slight cracked black pepper spice combined with nutmeg. The oily, rich texture of this whisky delivers an increasingly smoky influence. Overall, a unique balance of heavily peated malt, slow distillation, and oak character.

Discover Kilchoman

Kilchoman

Kilchoman may be among the youngest distilleries on Islay, but it carries itself with the gravitas of an elder statesman. Established in 2005 on Rockside Farm, near the windswept expanse of Machir Bay, it was the first new distillery to be built on the island in over a century. Despite its modern origins, Kilchoman is a proud revivalist, embracing traditional farm distilling in a way that feels both fresh and ancient.
