Kilchoman 2011 Madeira Cask Matured
This is a 2015 bottling from the farm distillery on Islay, Kilchoman.
Opened in 2005, Kilchoman was the first new distillery to be built on Islay for 124 years. Its proprietors are the Wills family, and the distillery saw a return of the practice of “farm distilling” to the island, with its own barely fields, malt floors and kilns. Today around 25% of its barley requirement is self-fulfilled, and in 2011 they bottled their first 100% Islay release of single farm, single malt. The distillery’s first release came in 2009, and it has cemented a fine reputation ever since.
Distilled in 2011, this was matured exclusively in Madeira casks. The distillery has invested heavily in its wood policy, and this was one of a number of wine cask matured expressions to make waves in its early years. This in particular was incredibly popular when released and sold out very quickly!
