Kilchoman 18 y.o. Family Collection Bourbon Cask 50 ppm Heavily Peated

Special features: The Kilchoman 18 Year Family Collection Bourbon Cask is a single malt whisky from the Kilchoman Distillery on the Isle of Islay in Scotland. This whisky matures for 18 years in carefully selected ex-bourbon casks, resulting in a complex profile. Made from heavily peated malt with a phenol content of 50 ppm, the whisky is free from chill filtration and colorants. This preserves the natural character of the whisky.

Tasting Notes:

• Nose: The nose opens with soft campfire smoke, complemented by aromas of vanilla pod, ripe pineapple, and lemon peel. Honey-sweet malt harmonizes with hints of sea salt and toasted coconut.
• Palate: On the palate, the whisky is rich and velvety, with nuanced flavors of smoked citrus, tropical fruits, vanilla fudge, sweet malt, and salted caramel. Gentle pepper spices and elegant peat smoke round off the tasting experience.
• Finish: The finish is long and refined, marked by lingering maritime saltiness. Creamy vanilla, warming oak spice, subtle ash, and a hint of smoke linger on.

Distillery/Bottler: The Kilchoman Distillery was founded in 2005 and specializes in producing heavily peated single malts. The whisky is made from 50 ppm heavily peated malt sourced from the Port Ellen Maltings. Bottling is done without chill filtration and without colorants, preserving the integrity of the flavor.
