Kilchoman 10 Years Old Wills Family Cask Collection Bourbon 70cl 54.2°
Each bottling in The Wills family cask collection has been selected by a member of the Wills family, the founders of the Kilchoman Distillery.
Kilchoman 10-year-old Bourbon Barrel Single Cask was selected by Katy Wills, founder of the distillery, wife of Anthony and mother of James, Peter and George. It was made from a local barley grown by the Rockside farm, which was then malted and peated (20ppm) at the distillery.
This version aged in Bourbon casks and then distilled in 2010.
Smoky, ashy, iodized and marine, this version is reminiscent of the seaside. Covered in spray and evoking a platter of freshly caught seafood, this version is vanilla, fruity and lemony.
Edition exclusively bottled for France.

First distillery built on Islay, 125 years ago, Kilchoman has been built as a “farm-distillery” and grows its own barley.
About 100 tons are harvested and malted at the distillery, 30% of the distillery’s needs. The rest is supplied by the Port Ellen malt-house. It is also part of the 6 last distilleries operating with traditional malting processes. In 2009, Kilchoman crafted its first recognized Single Malt. Kilchoman is one of the smallest distilleries of Scotland with an annual production of about 100.000 liters.
