Kilchoman '16 Year Old' Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky

This is a proud moment for all at the distillery as we release our 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 recognized Kilchoman flavours and character has developed over the last 16 years of maturation.

Anthony and Robin have spent the last few years keeping a close eye on these early casks, waiting for the right moment to vat them together and form this momentous Kilchoman 16 Years Old.

TASTING NOTES

Palate: A masterful balance of festive spices, fresh vanilla, tropical fruit and smoldering peat smoke.

Finish: Dried mango and apricots with bbq smoke and lasting mouth-coating honey sweetness.
