Kilchoman 9 Year Old 2010 Vintage Single Malt Scotch Whisky

The casks chosen for this expression were 42 bourbon barrels and 3 sherry butts - continuing the theme set by the previous bottling in this series from Kilchoman. After 9 years of maturation, the smoky single malt was bottled at 48% ABV, with 15,000 bottles released.

Nose: Creamy and sweet with milky coffee, toasted crumpets with butter and lemon meringue pie.

Palate: Earthier notes of peat and dried oak appear on the palate, though still featuring plenty of vanilla. A few flashes of Christmas spice too.

Finish: Baked apple, cola cubes, spicy smoke and cherry.
