The Kilchoman BALLINABY Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky is a bottling with a strong character from the Kilchoman Distillery and exemplifies the unmistakable house style of the young farm distillery on Islay. This bottling is named after the rocky Ballinaby Bay, which is located on the north-west coast of the island and is known for its rugged, maritime landscape. Kilchoman Ballinaby has been matured predominantly in ex-bourbon casks, which clearly emphasises freshness, clarity and the natural expressiveness of the Kilchoman spirit. This Islay single malt Scotch whisky is bottled at 46% vol. without chill-filtration and without colouring, ensuring that the texture and aroma are fully preserved.


Stylistically, Kilchoman BALLINABY is positioned as a powerful, accessible Islay malt that emphasises maritime peat smoke, citrus freshness and a malty structure. The maturation in bourbon casks emphasises the clear lines of this bottling and highlights Kilchoman's typical balance between smoke, sweetness and freshness. As with all of the distillery's bottlings, this whisky reflects the artisanal approach that is consistently pursued from distillation to bottling. The Kilchoman Ballinaby is supplied in a high-quality gift box, making it suitable both as an introduction to the world of Kilchoman and as a permanent part of an Islay collection.
