Kilchoman Port Cask matured, 3yo, 55%
Apparently, young Islay whiskies are ridiculously popular. As I said a short while ago I’m having trouble spending a wad of cash on Kilchoman, since it stings a little bit that I’m shelling out for a three year old. However, … Continue reading
Port & Peat – A small bottle share
A couple of years ago in a whisky magazine, I can’t remember which one, I read an article about port casks being the new sherry casks. The main reason behind this train of thought was that Port still pretty popular, … Continue reading
Kilchoman 2008-2013, 4yo, 61% – OB for The Whisky Show 2013
The third sample in a row from The Whisky Exchange. This time a Kilchoman from a bourbon cask, specially released for their The Whisky Show. I’m not going to talk too much about Kilchoman since everybody has already done that … Continue reading

Kilchoman Inaugural Release, 2009, 3yo, 46%
I’ve had this bottle ever since it came out and I even opened it rather quickly after I bought it. Strangely, I opened it to give someone else a sample and never tasted it myself. Kind of silly, but there’s … Continue reading
Kilchoman Feis Ile 2013, 2008-2013, 60.1%
The winter tasting at De Whiskykoning is almost the only time during the year that I drink Kilchoman. I’m not sure why, but this distillery hasn’t really connected with me yet. I do have a few bottles at home, including … Continue reading
