Kilchoman Sauternes Cask Matured

This limited edition Islay Single Malt is the first Kilchoman expression to be matured in Sauternes casks. Spending more than five years in the casks from Chateau d'Yquem in Bordeaux, the whisky has taken on the textured white age influence associated with Sauternes casks while remaining balanced with maritime peat smoke and sweet citrus. Only 6,000 bottles have been released at a strength of 50% abv.The nose is buttery and creamy with hints of peat. The palate is sweet and rounded, notes of bitter chocolate, liquorice and peat smoke combining in the mouth. The finish is clean and sweet with a rich texture lingering on.
