Kilchoman Machir Bay is an Islay single malt in a 750ml bottle, bottled at 46% and both non-chill-filtered and natural in colour. It has been the distillery's flagship since 2012. The vatting is led by first-fill bourbon barrels, with a smaller share of Oloroso sherry casks, and the barley is peated to 50 ppm. The name comes from a beach on Islay's west coast, a short walk from the distillery at Rockside Farm. The notes describe lemon zest, vanilla and coastal air on the nose, then tropical fruit, sultanas and honey on the palate, and a long finish of cracked pepper and sea salt.

Lemon zest, vanilla, coastal air, floral notes, peach and pear

Palate

About Glenbotal

The idea of Glenbotal came to us naturally: as whisky lovers, we were always on the lookout for new experiences in the whisky world. That’s why we created Glenbotal and became our very own first customers. We buy unique and hard to find spirits from ballots and private collections. Then, we share them with a small circle of friends and people who can appreciate a good dram.
