Discover this subtle and spring-like creation, with its nuances of iodine, fudge, and milk chocolate.
Nose: Dry straw, iodine, and flint.
Palate : Gristy notes, smoked porridge, and fudge.
Finale: Milk chocolate mousse.
KILCHOMAN was founded by Anthony Wills in June 2005. For more than 124 years a new distillery had not seen the light of day on the island of Islay on the west coast of Scotland. Supplied by the Port Ellen malting plant, it now makes it a point of honor to bring around 20% of the barley grown on its own land. Undoubtedly one of the smallest distilleries on the island, but already endowed with a prestigious maturity.
