Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky Distillery Bottling 70cl / 50%
The 2023 edition of Kilchoman Fino Sherry Cask Matured makes a welcome arrival - this is only the second release of this Kilchoman after its debut back in 2020.
For this Kilchoman Fino Sherry Cask Matured 2023 Edition, a total of 20 fino sherry casks from the esteemed Bodega Jose y Miguel Martin sherry producer were used, with the youngest cask being five years old and the total assemblage coming out around 15000 bottles.
Kilchoman Fino Sherry Cask Matured is bottled at a robust 50% without colouring or chill filtration and is a delightfully dry dram, with Kilchoman's ashy phenols the perfect complement for the fino sherry's razor-sharp lemony nuttiness.

Tasting Notes
Official Tasting Notes
Nose:Elegant, dry peat smoke on the initial nosing, gradually opens to the unmistakable fruity character of Kilchoman. The distinct influence from the Fino Sherry casks provides dry, smoked oak which balances with the smoke found in the heavily peated Kilchoman malt. A lasting aroma of sweet butterscotch as the whisky begins to open.
Palate:Honeycomb sweetness can be found immediately on the palate, gradually giving way to rich toffee and caramel. The Kilchoman spirit brings together candied fruits and the fresh citrus found in the distillation. Flaked almonds and a delicate peat smoke remain throughout.
Finish:Long-lasting considered finish combining the malty spirit of Kilchoman, with the ripened citrus fruit profile provided by the Fino Sherry casks. A subtle peat smoke which has coated the palate right through now shares the finish with hints of dark chocolate.

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.
