Kilchoman 100 % Islay Edition 2023
Pronunciation: { Kill-cHO-man }The thirteenth Kilchoman 100 % Islay Edition is the first release since 2019 where Anthony Wills (the company's founder) has chosen to age exclusively in bourbon barrels. These were predominantly fresh casks, and as a result the whisky has beautiful layers of buttery vanilla and caramel flavours that combine beautifully with the citrus sweetness of the spirit.
The 100% Islay was distilled from the 2012, 2013 and 2014 barley harvests and then matured for a minimum of 8 years in 44 ex-bourbon casks.
This is a limited edition, only 13 000 were bottled! The alcohol content is 50 % and the whisky is slightly peaty. The aroma and flavour continue to show distinct layers of vanilla, caramel and citrus sweetness.
The bottles come in gorgeous gift boxes. We recommend serving alone at room temperature or with an ice cube.
