Created from the same recipe of casks as our regular Sanaig release, Sanaig Cask Strength was matured predominantly in oloroso sherry casks. However, instead of adding water once the casks have been selected and vatted, this limited edition Sanaig Cask Strength has been bottled at its natural cask strength of 57.8% alc./vol. The result is an intense combination of rich peat smoke, cinnamon sweetness, and stoned fruits with waves of citrus, mixed spices, and dark chocolate.

Sanaig is a rocky inlet just north of the distillery and is the name given to their predominantly sherry cask influenced core expression, a vatting of 70% oloroso sherry casks and 30% bourbon barrels.

“Ever since we first launched Machir Bay at cask strength, followers of Kilchoman have been crying out for Sanaig to be bottled at the same high strength. The wait is over and it certainly packs a punch! Rich dark fruits coat the palate and a long-lasting finish of sweetness and spice make sure this smoky dram stays with you long after you’ve finished.”
