Kilchoman Distillery,

Special Release Sauternes Cask

50% 700ml

From Islay's Farm Distillery

The Sauternes Cask Matured limited edition release has spent the full term of its maturation in ex-sauternes wine casks for a minimum of five years.

Anthony Wills, Kilchoman Founder, selected a combination of fresh and refill sauternes barriques from multiple distillation years, to create the perfect balance of buttery sweetness, BBQ pineapple, candied ginger and floral peat smoke. 

TASTING NOTES

Nose: Creamy, buttery notes with ripe fruits, hints of salty air and subtle peat smoke

Palate: Butterscotch and floral notes combine with tropical and candied fruits with integrated peat smoke flowing throughout

Finish: Sweetness continues onto the finish, balanced with clean lingering smoke and a rich texture.
