Kilchoman 14 Year Old 100% Islay 20th Anniversary Cask Series 55% 70cl
One of the benefits of being a farm distillery is that you can control your own grain production. Islay maker Kilchoman is celebrated for its 100% Islay series, which is made only with barley grown on the island. It’s fitting that as it marks a major milestone with its 20th Anniversary Cask Series, there is an all-Islay release in the mix. This 14-year-old bottling has been matured in ex-sherry butts and bottled at a powerful 55% ABV, offering a unique taste of the island’s whisky.
Official tasting notes:
Nose: Fresh and spicy with bold BBQ smoke, black pepper, and rich dried fruits.
Palate: Intense, with warming spices and dried dates on the palate. A touch dark chocolate and herbal liquorice balancing the spice.
Finish: Long and full of flavour, with lingering sweet spices, rich BBQ meats and subtle integrated peat smoke.
