Kilchoman Fino Sherry Cask Matured
Whisky Kilchoman Fino Sherry Matured is a limited edition and the first global release of this cask type in maturation. The whisky has been fully matured in ex-sherry Fino casks previously used by Bodega Miguel Martin in Spain, in 11 fresh casks and 1 cask after refill.
This release follows other limited editions using Kilchoman's experimental post-ageing casks, full maturation in port, madeira, sauternes, and red wine casks, among others. This particular release is limited to 10 500 bottles worldwide!
The base whisky incorporates ex-sherry Oloroso casks during maturation, a medium-dry style of sherry that adds a range of cooked and dried fruit influences to the whisky. Sherry Fino differs from this in that it is a drier, saltier type of sherry that gives Kilchoman's whisky layers of fragrant green apples that balance beautifully with the citrus sweetness, cooked fruit and smoke from the sea peat.
The bottles were bottled at 50 % alcohol and come in a gift box. No chill filtration or colouring was used in the production process.
