March 27, 2013 – Kilchoman, Islay’s youngest distillery, is starting a new series of annual releases. Loch Gorm is named after a loch near the distillery, and the initial release was matured for five years in Oloroso Sherry butts with a final six weeks of time in Oloroso Sherry hogsheads.
10,000 bottles will be available globally in the 2013 release (46% ABV), with plans to release more mature versions of Loch Gorm in coming years.
