Kilchoman Non-Chiil Filtered Islay Single Malt Whisky - Winter 2010 release (750mL)

Kilchoman, (pronounced kilhoman) established in 2005, is a farm distillery and the first to be built on Islay for 124 years. Kilchoman gives everyone the opportunity to see all that is best in the grass-roots traditions of malt whisky distilling – from barley to bottle. Kilchoman is one of the smallest distilleries in Scotland with an annual production of 100,000 litres of alcohol. Kilchoman is one of only six distilleries to carry out traditional floor maltings, but the key difference at Kilchoman is that the barley is grown on the farm at the distillery, whereas other distilleries purchase barley from around the country. distillery Summer 2010 Release Tasting Notes Strength : 46%abv Colour : Pale Straw Nose: Strong peaty aromas and a comple blend of pear drops, citrus and hints of mango.
