Kilchoman, 16 Year Old (700ml)
Kilchoman,
16YO
50% ABV 700ml
Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky
This is a proud moment for all at Kilchoman distillery as they release their oldest global bottling to date. A combination of 21 casks have been maturing for over 16 years, predominantly ex-bourbon barrels with a hint of ex-oloroso sherry, creating a perfectly balanced single malt.
With a marriage of both ex-bourbon and oloroso sherry casks, this release showcases how the recognised Kilchoman flavours and character has developed over the last 16 years of maturation.
Tasting Notes
Nose: Delightfully rich, with a creamy citrus sweetness and layers of cooked apples, pears, plums and nutmeg.
Palate: A masterful balance of festive spices, fresh vanilla, tropical fruit and smouldering peat smoke.
Finish: Dried mango and apricots with bbq smoke and lasting mouth-coating honey sweetness.
