Kilchoman 5 Year 2006 Vintage
**SELLING ON A BEHALF OF A PRIVATE CLIENT**
A five year old release from Kilchoman, distilled in 2006. This is actually the first ever whisky of this age from the distillery, 80% aged in first fill bourbon and 20% in refill bourbon. A limited release which we’re sure will be very popular.
Region: Islay
Nose: A mix of pear-heavy Calvados, olive oil, stem ginger and a hint of fresh oysters with a squeeze of lemon juice. Some vanilla sweetness, a tinge of beeswax, lovely warm slabs of peat and butterscotch.
Palate: Big notes of tangy peat, salinity, butter on samphire, lapsang souchong, buttermilk, vanilla, ginger, nutmeg and TCP. Fascinating.
Finish: Wood ash, linseed oil, TCP again, sticking plasters, malt and smoked. A touch of anchovy and cut hay.
