Stories
Whisky is a passion to explore. From the history of the spirit to the evolution of the industry, the story of whisky helps fuel that passion. Often, it’s easy to forget that whisky is also a global multibillion dollar industry. The stories of whisky — from news and new releases to in-depth inquires and what goes on behind the label — blend together to help us appreciate the spirit of whisky.
Kilchoman To Release 2013 Machir Bay Malt
Machir Bay is the beach on Islay just down the road from the farm where Kilchoman is located, and this expression was introduced in 2012 as a tip of the hat to a favorite spot for Ileachs to relax. The 2013 Machir Bay expression differs slightly from the original, in that it uses whisky from 4 and 5-year-old ex-Bourbon casks finished for four weeks in ex-Oloroso Sherry butts. The original used a vatting of 3, 4, and 5-year-old casks.
The 2013 edition will be available starting March 4, with global distribution expected at a suggested retail price of around $60 USD per bottle.
