• Rich Sauternes cask influence: First-fill and refill Sauternes casks add generous fruit notes and a smooth, dessert-like sweetness.

• Limited-edition appeal: This 2024 release is a compelling choice for collectors and fans of distinctive distillery bottlings.
• Strong value at 50% ABV: The higher bottling strength preserves the whisky’s character and gives you the flexibility to enjoy it neat or with a small splash of water.

A Flavour Profile Full of Contrast

The first impression is invitingly sweet, with soft butterscotch and ripe, candied apricot notes creating a rich opening. These flavours bring warmth and roundness to the whisky, making it approachable while still offering plenty to explore.

As the dram develops, the coastal side of Islay begins to show. A light salty note adds freshness, while gentle peat smoke builds in the background. Rather than overwhelming the fruit, the smoke works alongside it, creating a pleasing contrast between sweet, fruity richness and savoury island character.

The finish is long and lingering, leaving behind echoes of candied fruit, soft sweetness, salt and smoky peat. Each sip reveals a little more, making this a whisky to enjoy slowly rather than rush.

Easy to Enjoy, Easy to Appreciate

This Kilchoman release is versatile enough for different occasions. Pour it neat to appreciate the full balance between Sauternes sweetness and Islay smoke. Add a few drops of water to open the aroma and soften the intensity, or serve it alongside rich desserts, mature cheese or lightly smoked foods.

Its bold flavour profile makes it suitable for experienced whisky drinkers, while the fruity cask character offers an inviting entry point for those who are beginning to explore peated single malts. With a 70cl bottle and a 50% strength, it also provides a generous, full-flavoured experience that makes each serving feel worthwhile.
