Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky Distillery Bottling 70cl / 50%
Kilchoman 2016 Cognac Cask Matured is a limited edition first bottled in 2023. This exciting new addition to Kilchoman distillery's portfolio is bottled at 50% without colouring or chill filtration.
Kilchoman Cognac Cask Matured 2023 Edition was distilled in 2016 and matured full term in an assemblage of 31 barrique casks that previously held top class cognac before being filled with Kilchoman's splendid spirit, yielding an edition of just over 15000 bottles in 2023. Expect a riot of orchard fruit flavours (pear, apricot etc) balancing out Kilchoman's tarry, ashy peatiness.

Tasting Notes
Official Tasting Notes
Nose: An opening note of rich apple and pear forms the structure for this release. Herbaceous fresh fruit begins to make its way as the whisky begins to open. Subtle tones of honey and warming spice develop over time. Peat remains delicate on the nose, bringing a dryness to this release.
Palate: The texture provided by a slow distillation and the influence of the Cognac oak allows for a buttery texture which continues throughout. Dried lemon and apricot combine with cinnamon and nutmeg which are held together by an influence of toasted oak and sweet peat smoke.
Finish: The depth of flavour that the Cognac casks have provided the Kilchoman spirit is unrivalled; dried fruits and marzipan make way to crystallised ginger, balancing sweet and spice. Lingering peat smoke is lightened with the influence of citrus oil making itself known across the palate.

2 bottles of this lovely single malt were bought as gifts. Sampled a couple of drams from one bottle and it went well above expectations. The quality, integrity, natural colour, cask strength ABV and value-for-money made these bottles 'no-brainers'.
Present us with more of these quality bottles at fair prices...and we'll buy more.
This is a heavily sherried dram that tastes of dates and raisins with a touch of honey and vanilla. It’s pretty soft and smooth without water but a few drops seem to thicken it up slightly and add hints of caramel. Absolutely gorgeous.
Signatory Independent bottlers do put out some cracking whisky this is the first Glentauchters ive tried and its really very good rich long finish great value for a quality dram.
