Introducing the Kilchoman 2012 Bourbon Marsala Finish, an exceptional whisky crafted by the renowned Kilchoman distillery on the iconic Isle of Islay. Distilled in 2012 and carefully bottled in 2022, this exclusive release boasts an impressive ABV of 54.3% and is presented in a 700ml bottle. With only 246 bottles available, this whisky offers enthusiasts a rare and limited-edition dram. The unique maturation process, involving a finish in Bourbon and Marsala casks, imparts a remarkable depth of flavor to this single malt. On the nose, citrus notes intertwine with fruity aromas of orange and tropical fruits, while smoky and earthy tones of peat and damp earth add complexity. The palate is dominated by red fruits, balanced with smoky flavors, vanilla sweetness, and a hint of spice. The finish is long and lingering, leaving a trail of peat, spice, and dried fruit. Kilchoman has expertly crafted a whisky that is both complex and balanced, characterized by its smoky and fruity profile, complemented by subtle sweetness and spice.
This whisky is unique due to its rare combination of Bourbon and Marsala cask finishing, which imparts a distinctive blend of smoky, fruity, and spicy notes.

As a whisky enthusiast, I find the Kilchoman 2012 Bourbon Marsala finish to be a truly remarkable expression. The interplay of citrus and tropical fruits with the quintessential Islay peatiness creates a harmonious aroma.
