Tasting Notes

A true gem from Islay's Kilchoman Distillery, this 10-year-old single malt whisky captivates with its harmonious blend of smoky and sweet notes. The aroma tantalizes with hints of warm cinnamon, sea salt, and rich fruitcake, complemented by the inviting scent of spiced hot chocolate. On the palate, a dense sherry character takes center stage, accompanied by a delightful touch of peat smoke spiciness and a subtle hint of marzipan. The finish lingers with a coastal salinity beautifully intertwined with stewed berry notes, leaving a lasting impression. Meticulously selected by the Wills family and matured in an Oloroso sherry hogshead for a decade, this exceptional whisky offers a delightful balance between the smoky and sherried flavors, bottled at a robust 54.4% ABV.
