Created with Shaved, Toasted and Re-charred casks, this single malt from Islay's Kilchoman is limited to just 14,500 bottles worldwide. Distilled in 2012 and matured in 43 hogsheads that had been treated by the STR process, this expression was bottled in 2019 at a strength of 50% abv free from chill filtration and artificial colouring.
The nose is very fruity with a hearty cinnamon spice and gentle peat smoke. The palate brings soft caramel and layers of red berries, lemon citrus and earthy peat smoke, before a long and spicy finish with honey and caramel adding balance.
