Description
The Kilchoman 13 Years Old Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky Limited Edition expands the Kilchoman Distillery's portfolio of matured bottlings and underlines the increasing importance of age-statement whiskies within the distillery. This limited edition has been matured for 13 years in a carefully balanced combination of ex-Bourbon barrels, Octaves and selected Calvados casks. The majority of the blend is made up of classic bourbon casks, which shape the typical Kilchoman Islay character, while the smaller cask formats contribute additional intensity and the Calvados casks add an extraordinary fruity dimension. This Islay single malt Scotch whisky was bottled at 50% vol. without chill filtration and without colorant.
With this bottling, Kilchoman impressively demonstrates how the maritime peat smoke of the island of Islay can be combined with alternative cask maturation without masking the distillery style. The combination of bourbon cask maturation and Calvados finishing provides depth, freshness and a clear fruit emphasis that blends harmoniously with the strong basic character. Despite limited stocks, the distillery focuses on matured editions in order to make the development of its distillate visible over longer periods of time. The Kilchoman 13 Years Old Limited Edition is supplied in a high-quality gift box, which also positions this bottling as a collector's item in the Kilchoman range.

The Kilchoman 13 Years Old Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky is ideal for pure enjoyment and develops its complex structure particularly well with a little time in the glass. This limited Kilchoman bottling is particularly harmonious with poultry dishes with fruity components, veal or mildly spiced pork dishes, in which the apple notes from the Calvados casks are harmoniously absorbed. A balanced combination is also created with mature hard cheese or desserts based on apple, vanilla or caramel. As a matured Islay Limited Edition, this bottling offers a long-lasting, multi-layered and expressive enjoyment experience. (automated translation)
