Single Malt
Scotland
1 Jan 2009
A 2009 vintage single malt from Islay's fantastic Kilchoman distillery, drawn from a combination of Sherry butts and bourbon barrels (previously the vintage releases from Kilchoman have all been drawn exclusively from bourbon barrels). This brings a touch of chocolatey sweetness to the flavour profile, pairing well with the warming smoke and cooked fruit notes.
This bottle was part of a private collection and will show signs of wear if of a certain vintage - if you'd like more detailed photos just get in touch!
Lemon, citrus and butterscotch notes are prominent with soft peaty aromas in the background.
Soft sweetness first and peat smoke and ripe fruit notes following.
Long, clean and sweet with peat smoke and soft fruits at the end.
Very nice and tasty Islay. Peat smoke does not dominate the taste palate. Rich flavour, fruity and ripe balance nicely with the peated taste.
