Kilchoman Machir Bay Single Malt Scotch Whisky – 70cl
Kilchoman was founded in 2005 at Rockside Farm on the western shore of Islay — the most westerly distillery on the island, exposed to the full force of the Atlantic — and remains the only distillery in Scotland to grow a proportion of its own barley and perform all stages of production from field to bottle on a single farm site. Named after the breathtaking Machir Bay beach a short walk from the distillery, the Machir Bay expression is the flagship of the range — matured in a combination of ex-bourbon and Oloroso sherry casks, non-chill filtered, natural colour. A beautifully balanced, citrus-forward, and sweetly peated Islay single malt that showcases Kilchoman's youthful but remarkably accomplished house style. Available to buy online in Singapore from The Liquid Collection.
TASTING NOTES
NOSE
Lemon zest, vanilla and distinct coastal influence give way to floral intensity, juicy peaches, pears, and wafts of rich spices
PALATE
Bursts of tropical fruit and dried sultanas, warming smoke and waves of honey, malt, butterscotch and rich sweetness
FINISH
Sherry-soaked fruit, cracked black pepper and sea salt. Long-lasting with layers of citrus sweetness and maritime peat smoke.
