Kilchoman 8 Year 2012 Tequila Cask Finish LMDW SG15th Anniversary Single Cask Release Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky ABV 52.8% 70cl with Gift Box

The first distillery built on the Isle of Islay for over a century, Kilchoman celebrated its third birthday in September 2009, with its new spirit finally reaching the age required for it to be legally called a single malt. Built using the model of a ‘farmhouse-distillery, Kilchoman makes a point of distilling its new spirit from barley grown on its own land. Some 100 tonnes are harvested and malted at the distillery, providing 30% of their needs. The rest comes from the maltings at Port Ellen. Its first barrel of new make spirit was filled in 2005.
