Kilchoman 100% Islay 12th Edition Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml)

The 100% Islay 12th edition was distilled from the 2011, 2012 and 2013 harvests of the Publican barley variety. Maturation took place in 29 bourbon barrels and 6 oloroso sherry butts for a minimum of 8 years. This is a slightly more reserved but nicely integrated Kilchoman offering a medium-bodied, fruity malt - and of course - the inevitable waves of peat smoke; hints of iodine and menthol rub enter, and the peat is sustained through the finish, but it's not as assertive as some earlier releases. Expect a more elegant distillery expression. 50% Alc./Vol. Non-chill filtered.
