Kilchoman 2012 Founders Cask Release

Kilchoman 2012 Founders Cask is a testament to Islay’s distilling heritage, born from the island’s first new distillery in over a century. Distilled in 2012 and matured entirely on-site – from floor malting to bottling – this whisky reflects Kilchoman’s commitment to quality and tradition, potentially echoing the earliest days of Scottish distillation traced back to Islay itself. This particular release boasts a unique character imparted by a Calvados finish, lending subtle fruit notes to the typically robust Islay peat smoke. Bottled at 54.8% ABV, it offers a full-bodied experience with a complex interplay of sweetness and spice.
