Kilchoman Small Batch - Batch No.5
This limited release from Kilchoman showcases some seldom seen casks. The Islay distillery's peated new make was aged in a mixture of 70% bourbon and 5% oloroso sherry casks. So far so conventional, but the remaining 25% comes from Calvados casks which imparts a distinct, cooked apple note to the resulting whisky. It was bottled at 49% ABV with no colour added or chill-filtering.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Citrus, baked apple and honey, with wood smoke, and maritime wafts.
Palate
Distinctly fruity, you can't ignore that sweet apple pie note mingled with caramel and a subtle smokiness.
Finish
Sweet and smoky.
