The Kilchoman Sanaig Sherry & Bourbon Casks 46% 200ml is a distinctive whisky that beautifully captures the essence of Islay. Crafted by the Kilchoman Distillery, one of the youngest distilleries on Islay, this expression is named after the rugged and scenic Sanaigmore coastline on the island's northern shores. Released in 2020, this bottling is a masterful blend of whiskies aged in both sherry and bourbon casks, with a significant influence from Oloroso sherry that imparts deep, rich, and fruity characteristics to the spirit.

Each sip is rich and intricate, combining the lush sweetness of over-ripe fruit and dark chocolate with the distinctive Islay peated smoke. The finish is multifaceted, starting soft and sweet before evolving into a robust peaty smoke that merges with lingering notes of vanilla, oak, citrus, and caramel. The deep, rich fruit cake flavors are a testament to the sherry cask influence, while the enduring peaty smoke underscores the rugged character of the Kilchoman spirit. Overall, the Kilchoman Sanaig Sherry & Bourbon Casks is a well-balanced and complex whisky that will captivate aficionados of both sherry and peated whiskies.
