Kilchoman Autumn 2009 Release Miniature

The 2nd general release bottling from Islay's newest distillery. Another small batch release with a growing cult following.

Kilchoman

Kilchoman Distillery was established by Anthony Wills in 2005 at Rockside Farm near the centuries old Kilchoman Cross and the old Kilchoman Church on the Isle of Islay. Kilchoman Distillery is a malt whisky distillery which malts barley grown in Rockside fields and bottles Kilchoman single malt whisky at the distillery using local Islay water. Field to bottle. Kilchoman is the newest and most westerly of Islay’s distilleries and with just two small stills it is one of the smallest working distilleries in Scotland.

Strong peaty aromas, wood smoke and medicinal flavours. Rich dark fruits and orange. On the palate peat smoke with dark fruits, hints of marmalade and creamy toffee. It has a long finish, eventually the peat recovers, leaving a clean lingering aftertaste.
