Kilchoman releases 20 casks to celebrate 20 years of whisky

8 May

Kilchoman releases 20 casks to celebrate 20 years of single malt scotch whisky making.

20 casks to celebrate 20 years of Kilchoman. Casks that epitomize the unique flavour profile of Kilchoman and chracterise two decades of commitment to craft.

Selected by Kilchoman Founder, Anthony Wills, these casks are a testament to him and his team’s skill, dedication, and perseverance.

There are four releases in the series, each a vatting of five specially selected casks, highlighting the two distinct sides of Kilchoman’s unique character; ex-bourbon and ex-sherry maturation. The ex-bourbon releases are defined by salty peat smoke and bright citrus sweetness. In contrast, the darker-hued ex-sherry releases offer a richer profile, with notes of dried fruits, BBQ smoke, and mixed spices.

“It has been a journey, not always smooth, but immensely fulfilling,” Anthony Wills, Kilchoman Founder.

The 20th Anniversary Cask Series will be available in the UK and Europe from this week and It will be arriving in markets further afield over the coming weeks.
