Kilchoman Small Batch 4 | 2022 Release 70cl/49.8%

This is the fourth edition of Kilchoman’s Small Batch series, and it really is a small batch, with just 1260 bottles produced, bottled at 49.8% without coloring or chill filtration.

Matured in a combination of 70% ex-bourbon casks, 25% STR (shaved, toasted, and recharred) casks, and the remaining 5% Oloroso sherry matured in Kilchoman. For this batch, the bourbon casks were reduced to 46% before vatting, and the STR cask went into the vat at full strength to emphasize its flavors and maximize its influence. A punchy, full-flavored Islay treat.

Official Tasting Notes:

Naso: Classic Kilchoman citrus sweetness gives way to red berries, baking spices, and herbal notes. 

Palate: Summer fruit and red grape sweetness, white chocolate, light hints of smokiness, charred pineapple and toffee. 

Finish: A long lingering smoky finish
