Official tasting notes
Nose: Driven by notes of vanilla and apricot with an elegant underlying peat smoke
Palate: Opening rich honey-sweetness makes way for an intense influence of almond followed by a classic Kilchoman peat smoke combined with toasted oak
Finish: Dried fruit, lemon zest and rich spice balanced with a long lasting malty sweetness.

Bottling Notes
Here’s cracking, single-cask expression from Kilchoman bottled exclusively for the Aussie market.
The whisky was laid to rest for just over six and a half peaceful years in a fresh bourbon barrel before being re-racked into a delicious sauternes wine cask for 18 months of finishing.
The result is an exceptional, peated whisky with many layers that will satisfy even the staunchest whisky aficionado.
