Kilchoman 100% (13th Edition) Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky 700ml
The 100% Islay 13th Edition was distilled from barley grown on the farm at Kilchoman in 2012, 2013 and 2014, it was then matured for a minimum of 8 years before 44 bourbon barrels were selected for this year's release of bottles. Kilchoman Distillery is situated on Rockside Farm which covers around 3,000 acres on the north-west coast of Islay. Most of the area is marginal ground, only suitable for resilient breeds of cattle and sheep however they have 200 acres of good-quality soil surrounding the distillery. It is here that the barley is grown for the annual 100% Islay editions. Not only is the barley grown on site but once it's harvested, the team also malt the barley using traditional floor malting techniques; first germinating and then smoking the barley, using local Islay peat, to give the whisky its smoky character.ABV 50%
