The Kilchoman Inaugural Release is the first bottling of Kilchoman as a single malt whisky. Produced in 2009, this offering was distilled at Kilchoman, known as Islay's farm distillery.
This whisky is distinguished by its unique maturation process. It was initially aged for 2.5 to 3 years in bourbon casks, then finished for an additional six months in sherry casks. This process imparts distinct characteristics to the final product.
The release was limited to a production of 8,450 bottles, each with a strength of 46% ABV. Labelled as an Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky, this release holds a notable position within the whisky industry.
The inaugural status of this release represents an important milestone in Kilchoman's history, making it a significant collectable for whisky enthusiasts.
