Kilchoman 10 Year Old 2011 Single Cask 168/2011 STR Cask Finish

Kilchoman 10 Year Old 2011 Single Cask 168/2011 is a single-cask Islay single malt from Kilchoman, the farm distillery on the west coast of Islay. Distilled in 2011 and bottled as a 10 year old, the whisky was finished in an STR cask - a red wine cask that has been shaved, toasted and re-charred, a treatment devised by the late Dr Jim Swan. Kilchoman bottles a small number of single casks each year, each chosen for a particular market and bottled at natural cask strength with its own individually detailed label. Cask 168/2011 was bottled as an exclusive selection at 54.5% ABV in a 700ml bottle.

Serve: Neat at full strength first, then with a few drops of water to open it up.
