Product details
Kilchoman Batch Strength Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky is a bold addition to Kilchoman Distillery’s core range, launched in March 2024. Founded in 2005, Kilchoman is Islay’s only farm distillery, known for its traditional methods and commitment to quality. This expression is matured in a combination of re-charred red wine casks, Oloroso sherry butts, and bourbon barrels. After maturation, a few drops of water are added to achieve a batch strength of 57% ABV, resulting in a whisky that balances raw intensity with delicate finesse.
On the nose, Kilchoman Batch Strength offers aromas of red fruits, fresh cherries, heather blossom, and intense peat smoke. The palate reveals flavors of toffee, rich spices, vanilla, and lasting peat smoke, leading to a silky finish with notes of fresh crumpets, butter, and honey. This robust and flavorful whisky pairs well with hearty dishes such as smoked meats, aged cheeses, or rich chocolate desserts, making it a versatile choice for various culinary experiences.
