Kilchoman Single Sherry Cask
Country: Scotland
Region: Islay
Type: Single Malt
Bottler: Distiller
ABV: 60%
Score: 85 Points
This bottling is exclusive to Calgary’s Kensington Wine Market, and came from barley grown on the distillery’s farm. The first-fill sherry cask gives it a nose of toasted mincemeat pie, oak campfire smoke, a nice peatiness and a touch of honey. The taste is a great balance of peat, licorice, honey, and brown sugar with a pepperiness that builds slowly. The finish is apple pie with a toasted crust and touches of brown sugar.
