Kilchoman Loch Gorm 2023 Single Malt Scotch Whisky 700ml

Named after a famously dark and peaty loch overlooked by the distillery, Loch Gorm is a sherry cask single malt matured exclusively in oloroso casks, extracting the rich spicy character of the European oak as it ages in Kilchoman's Islay warehouses.

All Kilchomans casks come from the renowned bodega, Jose Miguel Martin. It is common for distilleries to use a variety of sherry producers but for consistent quality and character, Kilchoman purchase them all from just one bodega. The 2023 edition of Loch Gorm features whisky from a parcel a total of 22 casks, matured for a minimum of 8 years. 8 of these casks were distilled in 2013, 6 distilled in 2014, and 8 distilled in 2015. A combination of sherry butts and hogsheads are used to provide 2 different styles of maturation. These ex-oloroso sherry casks impart a combination of heavy sherry notes, spicy dark chocolate, rich fruits and burnt sugar. This balances beautifully with the Kilchoman peat smoke and citrus fruits found within our farm crafted spirit.

The nose has hints of cacao with an essence of leather, black cherry and light smoke. On the palate flavours of roasted hazelnuts, dark chocolate and roasted dark fruits give way to light ashy peat smoke with a long balanced finish with a fresh Islay sea breeze.
